Bikers are music lovers too

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.
