Loch side.
Those bright plasic bobble things that slide up and down spokes.

Hard to believe that someone rode TCR with loads of them on the wheels. The noise would drive me nuts and it must have made the dogs go barking mad.

I built a front wheel with those that I break out every now and again at one of those fun or protest rides where people dress up. Unfortunately, centripital force renders them noiseless any speeds above about 5 kph. I can assure you, they don't drive you nuts. They're quite disappointing in the noise department, actually.
