Default Ride Bells?

I just came across the story about ride bells and thought it was pretty cool. Was wondering how many of you have a ride bell on your bike?

hypostang, thank you. That was a very interesting and enlightening 10 pages of reading. lol I was laughing more than once on it too.

orlenz, youch.

I was wanting to get one for my friend but wasn't sure if guys thought it crazy or what. I'm not superstitious at all but he is... a lot more into the whole gremlins kind of ideas (always teasing me about jinxing things lol) so I think he would like one. I think any gift from a friend is a treasured keepsake and special though. And it's a very cool story.

Wife got me a nice celtic design one. Had it attached near the back brake with a zip tie and somebody cut it off. She got we antoher one and I used the bracket that came with and mounted near the horn. So far nobody has bothered it.

I have one given to me by a fellow rider. I figured any help with the fight against road gremlins is a good thing right?
