Riding Aero Position - dangers

[G3CWI]

This is what happened to my iPhone last night on J2/1. Correct position results in pockets being horizontal - not good. Fortunately another cyclist found the phone. Unfortunately it had been run over. Amazingly it still works fine. How the touch screen works like that I cant imagine.

New PB for 10 miles as a consolation. Not bad considering that I got stuck in the temporary lights near Chelford both ways and also got stuck at the roundabout on the way back.

That is another good reason to cycle in jeans that have deep pockets.

Is your phone insured?

Why have your phone on you in a TT....?

It was my own personal TT so it was doing the timing. And of course I might have needed to take an urgent call from my Stockbroker.
