I think I read somewhere (dang, I really can't remember where, or I'd go looking ) that motorcycle riders have a small bell on their bikes to ward off all things evil, like the p*n*ct*r* fairy, or mechanical difficulties, or even dark SUVs driven by inattentive drivers.

The thing is, they don't work if you buy them for yourself. Someone has to give you yours.

Maybe we could exchange a bell, or a bike angel, or something protective like that?
