Thanks for the link to an excellent article, Will.  It's been bookmarked.  

I was aware of Brad Treat's fatal bear encounter from some original reports 
last year.  I hadn't realized he had actually collided with the bear 
though.  Adding bells would be an excellent option, as would an air horn.  
And keep the speed down (20 to 25 mph down Sourdough probably way to fast 
(but way fun on my Hilsen)).

Yes bears are a risk.  But keep in mind one comment to the story reminding 
us that "the most dangerous animal is the one that walks upright, wears 
clothes, and can be very unpredictable." 

Now just need handlebar mounts for an air horn, bear spray, bells, 
cyclocomputer, h'bar bag (it's getting crowded) GPS, smahtfone, headlamp ...

Cheers!
