IPod Case for bike

[woohoo]

Playing music as you flash by has got to be safer than having your headphones in, right?

I like the look of this one - I *think* should fit on the bike like a standard bottle cage (but haven't seen it except in pics)

My husband made a holder for his Treo and his air horn. He has made them to fit his iPhone. It's very lightweight and secures with zip ties onto the frame.

sundial, I really like that. What did he use? Thanks

[coz i can]

OK maybe too much info here, but I put my ipod in my bra, its in a sleeve and it still works after many years of using it., to change songs, volume etc is all easily accesible. I just have one ear plug in, the ear away from any oncoming traffic, eg bikes etc that may overtake me so i can hear them coming. NB, i also put my ipod in my bra for running, so when I was training for ironman last year my ipod did loads of kms in my bra and all is still good.

strange i know

Not strange at all! I do that at the gym on the treadmill -I don't do it running outside, for some reason, though!
I like Sundial's husband's thing, too!

I use a Shuffle. Super easy to attach to sleeve and change songs, adjust volume, etc. You can get a good deal on the "old" design, since there's a newer version now. I just got one when dh went to buy a new charger and found out it would only cost $20 more to buy a new shuffle that comes with a charger. So he got a charger and I go a shuffle. Sweet!

not that I am debating the use/non use of music while riding....

the bra works well for storage......and now works even better since I have pockets (gotta love cancer...but when god gives you lemons make lemonaid!)....

If you like the bra idea you can get a mastectomy bra with a pocket to keep it in....

Surgtech, it's a heat moldable material that is lightweight and stiff like carbon fiber. I can't remember the name of it right off.

Ninabike, he has made several types of holders for our iPods, iPhone, and his Treo. It takes him about 30 minutes or so to make it and he attaches it to the bike frame using zip ties over raquetball tape to prevent scuffs on the bike frame.

The stuff that my husband uses to make the cases is Kydex.

I have this, and I use it when I'm riding away from any traffic or other moving obstacles. It works well. When I don't have it in, it does double duty as an extra water bottle cage. I use it on my trainer because my ear buds just sweat right out!
I would recommend the product. it has a nifty "remote" that attaches to your handles so you don't have to fiddle around much to adjust volume or change the song.
