Cycling app users, your advice please

[lordrobs]

I was wondering... what do you do with your phones when out cycling. At the moment I just shove it in my pocket but after a long ride it can be damp on the back from sweat

I was wondering if anyone uses a bike mount for their phone? I've got a Moto G if that makes any difference.

Any advice would be great

I put it in the front pocket of my softshell or in the summer it goes in my saddle bag

I use a Strava branded version of this:

I put mine in a ziplock bag with my credit card and drivers licence

Side pocket never gets sweaty for me but I guess those triangle frame bags might be a good choice for you.

This.

(Except i cant afford fancy ziplock bags so i put it in a sandwich bag and fold over the top )

Don't use a cycling app as I use a Garmin. But I carry my phone and cards/ID in one of these while riding:

No idea if they would ship to the UK though.

Thanks guys. I wasn't sure if anyone used some kind of bar mounts but it doesn't look like it! I think a zip up bag for general rides will do the job. I'll look into a bar mount for a bit of GPS assisted riding in the summer.

After looking for what seemed like ages I found http://www.loksak.com/products/aloksak which provide a waterproof bag but you can still use your phone inside it. Got a pack of 3 one for my phone, one for work phone if I'm on standby and one for ipad, although I haven't used that one yet.
