Thanks Ken, I download the GPS Drive Motion X app which seems pretty good. It allows me to avoid highways so it seems close to what I am looking for.

Thanks for the help!!

Hey Santino – I haven't run across any apps like that to date... Though I suppose that as long as you're comfortable riding on the street, there's no reason you couldn't use a traditional car-based GPS. That way you could either mount it to your handlebars (like this) or have the phone in a jersey pocket or backpack with earphones.

Does anyone know of a cycle app for the iphone where you can plug in the route. As you ride it provides directions via voice? Similar to the Car Navigation apps but records all the vital cycle data.

@ Susan,

That’s good to hear! I haven’t ventured out with mine yet, but you might have given me the nudge I needed :)

I personally use this case http://www.griffintechnology.com/armored

So far I have dropped my iPhone, talked outside while it was raining pretty hard, and been in windy conditions all to have my iPhone still pretty and looking as good as new, I imagine I could even duck tape it to my handlebars lol. I have never actually crashed on a bike with it (knock on wood) yet but I’m confident it would be in better condition then me afterwards. Now all we need is a bike mount for this bad boy!

Putting a quick heads up on our app too for anyone that finds it useful. Called Bike Doctor and it shows you how to repair your bike. It’s pretty useful even for anyone with a bit more experience with bike maintenance to refer back to.

Check out the 4Lock iPhone mount. It is designed to protect the iPhone and locks it in place on all 4 sides. It is precision engineered just for the iPhone.

Strong, rigid and reliable!
This Ibikeconsole is serious good! Steady rubber and sealed edges makes this iPhone Mount very tough…

And, the ibikeconsole for 3G/3GS fits the iPhone 4 perfect!
