I’m also loving this series, and am a big fan of cyclemeter. I’m leery of a mount, for reasons stated above, but also because I don’t want to be constantly looking down. I wear regular shorts with pockets over my bike shorts, and the iPhone usually sits there without bothering me for the ride. If it becomes a problem, I’ll put it in a fanny pack.

Nice info Myron, I’ve used a number of iPhone Apps and I had a bike mount from Amazon, which was crap to be honest so I stopped using it. But my biggest gripe is the lack of battery life on the phone itself. My cyclemeter app lasts about 4 hours. Ok for a morning ride but no good for a day out.

I got a Garmin Edge 500 instead which I’m totally in love with! My iPhone is now back to being just a phone.

I had a bike mount for my iphone 3, not this brand, and the seal came out and my phone ejected itself onto an asphalt path narrowly avoiding skittering into the bayou below. I loved the bike mount until that exact moment. First word to the wise — check your seal before every ride. Now, I have no seal, so my $50 bike mount is worthless unless I can buy a seal separately. Turns out the seal flew out while my bike was on the carrier. Second word to the wise — make sure mount is firmly closed before you drive off with bike & mount on the carrier.

Another fantastic post, Myron. Thanks for more great information. Your Mac Monday series has been great and has made our site much better during the month of September.

I know this is the last of the Mac Mondays, but we’ll definitely need you to add in some more here and there, whenever you have them.

Great job.
