    Worn Out!

    I ride a lot, so wear out lots 'O parts.

    Appears I have worn out my tour bell.

    Used to be deeper and have 4 flukes...and a clapper too!

    Bummer.

      A tour bell is (usually) a small bronze or brass bell. It is hung low on the bike and near the front...usually by long distance bikers.

      Legend has it that the ringing keeps the gremlins and other nasty road spirits off the bike. The bell has to be gifted to you to be effective.
