Thanks. I'll check those out. So far, tube clamp or stem screw haven't worked. I think that one with a belt or tie mounted on either the handlebar or the stem might work, as long as it's secure.
Well, there's always the bike computer route. You could pay very little for a bike computer that just shows the basic stuff. Your phone could stay in a jersey pocket and still record the ride data, including GPS data, if you like.hyperliterate said:
Yes, I was planning on getting a bike computer too, but I haven't yet decided how sophisticated a unit I need at this point.

This mount might be a bit agricultural, but it certainly looks sturdy:
I use my Map My Ride when I am riding. I like the data that it saves and having a GPS app comes in handy from time to time.
I use Endomondo (gave up on using Map My Ride). It tracks everything and when I am done it uploads it to the cloud. I saw a guy the other day messing with his phone mounted on his bike and he almost wrecked. If you do use your GPS phone for directions, make sure you use the voice commands and not try and navigate via a map while you're moving. I think it's dangerous.
I have endomondo too, but I started using map my ride and it records my workout details and stores them on the cloud and gives you weekly and monthly summaries, along with encouraging emails. I guess i just got in the habit of using map my ride. I don't mess with my phone while riding unless i'm standing still with my feet on the ground. I just listen for the audio splits (total time, mileage, average speed) and the screen is black the whole time.
