    I'd like to find something better than the kazoo-based 'bugle' I have, as I've been taking a role as the bugler for the Tweed and other rides.

    Needs to be a compact bugle with attachment rings and preferably with sling to carry across upper body, and ready for use.

    Any suggestions. Bugle lessons might be required..... although Ms Lauren Bacall had some useful advice a while back.

    A bit big to have hanging - even the 'standard' Bugle on e-Bay is a bit long - cyclists like horse-riding army buglers had compact instruments that were slung over the shoulder.

    West Lothian clarion would have had a cyclist's bugle in the 19th century.

    This one looks a bit more practical. Listing ends in 8 hours though, so be quick.

    note to self: must not skim-read. I thought the thread had read:

    "Wanted cyclist's bulge..." :-/
