    I have just ordered an iphone4s which should be here in a few days, what bike related apps does anyone recommend and how will this smart phone help with my biking hobby?

    This is my first smart phone I decided to get one to help keep up with you lot.:confused:

    Dan had one that acts like a flight recorder of your ride. Can't remember it's name though. Dan!!

    The Sat Nav apps are good as you can set the destination , put the phone in you pocket and it speaks the directions through the head phones

    Which one Dan? The TOM TOM sounds expensive but if its good? I like the idea of listening the directions with the phone in my pocket, thats a great idea?

    I've used both and found Co Pilot's routing to be a bit odd at times. It's taken me off at motorway junctions and then taken me straight back on again! :confused: Might be me not setting it up right but I've never had a problem with Tom Tom. YMMV :D
