Am I the only one who can't stand having a keyring on my keys? Neutral

for example, was doing my fucking head in - and I was only watching the bloody thing, let alone riding it!

My car flip key is the same - no key ring on it, can't stand the noise of it flicking around while I'm driving.

The bit on my keys that detaches from the lanyard has a metal connector. If it's sat right, it hangs over the yoke and the weight of it keeps it there. If it's not right, it sits ON the yoke and "tinkles". Really distracting. Maybe that's my bit of biking OCD right there, it has to be sat "just so".

Put velcro on the keyring and velcro it to the yoke.

"Show us your ring" would be infinitely more amusing.
