Subject: Re: Bells horns, etc

It might take this discussion and fling it into a comical tangent but if there
was a way to amplify my "DOG BARKING" cell phone ring to appropriate decibel
level, it may speed people up so that you would not have to pass.
But seriously folks, how about just yelling "W I D E T R I K E". I have
limited time on a trike in traffic with other bicycles as I have only owned a
trike for about 3 months. A few times that I have come across other cyclists
they were heading right into my path on the wrong side of the road... Cycling
in my area (Central Valley California rural areas of San Joaquin County) is not
all that popular.

You could ring multiple bells so they think it is several people
passing?
