"Wave goodbye to wobbly fumbling to keep your balance on a bike as you try to change tunes on the iPod nano that's in your pocket or on an armband," argues a press release for the iBikeMount iPod nano holder. Further down the press release it says cyclists who listen to iPods as they pedal will be safer with the IBikeMount but that "cyclists should always remember to stay aware of their surroundings at all times." Perhaps by not listening to an iPod while on the move?
