I think this can be applied to both hikers, and mountain bikers. Many times my bear bell becomes useless when the hiker or mountain biker is wearing headphones. http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/01/17/10176069-fatal-distraction-deaths-of-headphone-wearing-pedestrians-on-the-rise |

 Yep I totally agree!! I've had dumbasses that had both earbuds in and couldn't hear my cowbell either. I think people need to have atleast one ear open "nothing in them" so they can hear there surroundings. Whether it is a hiker, biker, etc... I can go on forever but yeah I'll keep it at that. People need to be aware of there surroundings. Favorite |
