the concept of using your iPhone as your cycling computer is, of course, not new but the iBike Coach package takes care of both the hardware protection for your iDevice and also addresses the need for social interaction among cyclists. i am not an avid cyclist but it sure sounds like a complete package to me. plus, the hardware protection can finally ease my worry about sudden shower when riding and if the bike falls over, at least i know my phone will be well protected from any shock. the $69.96 iBike Coach comes packaged with the iBike case and mount, iBike Coach app, and a 6-months free Strava Premium Membership.
