Bad attitude.

I mean that in the girliest way.

Let's see that scary bike, please.

We all need to share the roads and you are going to lose every fight.

Smarten up.

See how it works?

I can hear the clock ticking from here.

Tom , I'd like to give you The benefit of the doubt, But I have to ask, Did you go to the site and check out all of the info or are your comments just off the cuff ? I watched the video and the company's angle is not just to have a loud horn to scare motorists into noticing you. Thier premise is that driver's react to a car horns out of habit. when a motorist hears a car horn even just a toot thier reaction is to stop and look to make sure they have the right of way and to visually locate said vehicle. Trust me when I tell you no one does that with a bell.
I do a ton of city riding and I'm definately going to try this out. You can continue to name call, but if it works I'd be good with it. (I've been called way worse) probably recently too!!!
