So although I haven't seen anyone doing in on Ducs, in the past 2 weeks, I've seen 3 different people talking on the phone WHILE riding. Guys, please tell anyone you know that this is a BAD idea. Can't believe anyone would actually attempt this.

That is just stupid.
Wouldn't work for me anyway. My bike is too loud to hear anyone and I can't even walk and text, much less try to ride and do it.

How the frack does that even work? Is this in no-helmet-law states? The wind noise alone should prevent someone from doing this! Well, that and the crashing and dying thing...

My bike is the one place I refuse to be hooked to my phone. It is my place to get away from the rest of the world!

i agree the bike is one thing i don't want to be bothered by talking to someone while riding, i have too muich to be aware with the motorcycle itself.
funny thing is that i have tried using bluetooth while riding on a bicycle. inevitibley the person on the other end hangs up as they no longer want to hear me breathing hard whle riding. hey i'm riding up a hill i'm going to breathe heavily. lol

I keep mine on vibrate in my front pocket. If I feel like it I'll pull over and see who it is, but when I'm riding I don't want to be bothered so.

Check out my oil filter forensics thread! Offended? Click here"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I passed a cop once while I was riding helmetless, on the phone, with my dog balanced on the gas tank. He gave me a funny look.  |

I'd have to deal w, a Bandanna, which holds all my hair under my Helmet and a Helmet Liner on top of that so my Helmet fits so tight that I don't take it off until I'm done w, my ride. I've got a water bottle w, a bite valve that I keep in my Hip pack and I can actually get it in between my breath guard if I pull down on the front of my Helmet as much as I can w, it on at a stop for a stretch and a quick drink. No way any talking on the phone while riding. I'd have to be stopped and take my Helmet off but most places I ride there's very little cell reception. People never cease to amaze me . Dolph  |

With three kids (all under 5 years old), a full time job, and being a full time student, all I can say to this comments My bike is the one place I refuse to be hooked to my phone. It is my place to get away from the rest of the world!
is: Amen |

I actually saw someone texting while riding. Scared the crap out of me.
