  1. @adingbatponder needs a good microphone/headset (via @sam)

    Q5. Anyone know of a reliable #microphone and how to use it for #telephoning with decent sound on a smartphone while #cycling ?

    I can #telephone in the car fine but on #bike I have to abort most calls. Is there a trick I can use to have decent sound without wind and clothes rubbing mic, background noise, etc?

    Do I have to wear a #motorcycle #helmet for the #soundquality?

    Thanks for any tips!

  3. @ReCyclist: [#BikeNite A7] Was looking into standalone bike computers with GPS navigation and map display last night after this discussion (and it got way too late πŸ€ͺ) and actually some of the successors to the #Garmin Edge 530 are my current favourites: #GarminEdge 840 Solar or 1040 Solar. (30 vs 40 = older vs newer generation, 500 vs 800 = without vs with touchscreen, 800 vs 1000 = smaller vs bigger screen and battery size, Solar = screen works as solar panel)
