Gadget that may help for cell phone users that ride...
For those of us that need to know when their cell phone is ringing while they ride but they can't hear it, this seems interesting. It's a bluetooth vibrating bracelet that would let you know to pull over and see who called you and return the call if needed. This is assuming of course that you aren't vibrating all the time while you are riding your big v-twin cruiser
 . Product here. |

Re: Gadget that may help for cell phone users that ride...
Neat idea, but my phone usually rides in my shirt pocket and I can't feel it vibrating when riding. Don't know what difference it'd make vibrating at the wrist.

Re: Gadget that may help for cell phone users that ride...
My Zumo 550 actually shows me who is calling!! It also stops the music! Then I can either choose to answer the call and try to hear the caller and talk to them on the fly, or ignore the call and find a safe place to pull over to call them back, through the Zumo!!! Don't need to take the helmet off or anything!!!!
 I love my Zumo!!!!  Kim |

Re: Gadget that may help for cell phone users that ride...
I completely ignore my phone when i'm riding but for those who can't, there are ways way better than this bracelet...
http://www.kneedraggers.com/details/...h--621313.html Of course there are much cheaper items but you get my point. You do know abt these products, no? |

Re: Gadget that may help for cell phone users that ride...
One of the reason's I ride is to get away from such disturbances. I'm sure whatever the call it can't wait until the next fill up.

Please please please don't tell me that there is ANY reason you have to talk on the phone and ride?! I think the rider to rider communication is distracting enough. I can't imagine that there is anything short of someone's death that i need to know about when riding. And even that I can't change at that moment. Ride now, mourn later.
