  1. I ride a multi-use trail and was looking for a unique bike horn to
    warn walkers, runners, other bikers, and the truly oblivious that I
    wanted to pass. So I created a prototype horn with a digital recorder
    chip to produce a unique sound.

    This article, http://www.tuxcat.com/benjy/bikehorn.html, describes the
    prototype. I hope to build a smaller version in the future.

    Regards,
    Benjy

    I was hoping for a larger version, something in the locomotive category.

    Something that'll make 'em soil themselves and freeze in place so I can pick a
    line around them rather than guess which way they'll jump.

    Try a Delta AirZound, loud enough to make blond bimbos in big SUVs
    drop their cell phones. ;-)

    Train horn.
    Looks like it might be a little weighty.

    I wish they had named it "Yer Darn Tootin' ".

    Oh, you want a horn where the biker needs to wear hearing
    protection ;-)
