MP3 for bikes

As one of our fellow Cravers reminded us yesterday, bikers are often neglected in the gadget realm (as in mountain bikes, not Harley choppers). So we did a little digging and came across this gift for your cycling loved ones: a frame-mounted bicycle MP3 player from Hammacher Schlemmer. Waterproof and detachable, it comes with headpones, a built-in speaker, 1GB of memory and a USB port. Depending on your bike model, there may even be enough room left over for a GPS device and garage door opener.

Music lovers, fine. But music listeners?

having ridden city streets on my bicycle for many years, it's obvious to me that riding a bike with headphones on is not just incredibly dangerous and stupid, but rude.

you only really have use of two senses on the bike, and listening to music kills one.
