Will it have a hologram on it?

Not interested if it hasn't got a hologram on it.

How about 'Excuse me please.' It works well for me. Same as on the pushy, or I call hello or good morning. It seems to make people jump less than a bell.

but that's the thing when you let people know earlier that you are coming their way it won't make them jump and also you won't have to shout

I have noticed quite a few newbies whilst out training recently.                     

 Any warning device would have to be very loud because most of them are wearing..........dare I say it......HEADPHONES. 

I guess you're right although when you listen to a music one wierd sound gets your attention which doesn't belong there and you starting to look around

I think shouting is more polite because you can say 'please'. However, I have done the survey.

thx

I dunno, though, when riding my bike on shared bike/footpaths/bridleways I find some walkers want you to ring your bell, other people get massively offended by the bell because they take it as a 'get out of my way' signal rather than a polite 'here I am' signal.

you know it it is about safety really. No suprieses, no injuries on both sides.

I guess you can't say how other people will react but still I think that shouting is less polite.
