Sagan puts a bell on his bike

It might be something you would get laughed at for having on your bike if you showed up to your local club run, but given the way things have went in this Tour de France with multiple crashes every day taking down many big names, it seems only sensible that Peter Sagan has decided to attached a bicycle bell to his own race bike.

"The motorbikes are always beeping and looking for space here at the Tour, so now I can do it myself," said the 22-year old Slovakian.

It didn't slow him down any as he won the stage today though it would be interesting to find out if he used the bell at any stage during the race. If he did, then it worked for he avoided any of the days big spills. Expect to see them at a club run near you soon.
