I hate phones, and like others leave it stowed for emergencies.

+1 to all!
I'll check mine for "emergent" messages whenever I stop - aging parents, canines, & daughters all seem to have issues every now & then, so as a first-born son, a father, and 'head-of-household" I do my due diligence to my tribe.
Other than that, I treat it like a tool - it is for my use - no one else's - and it stays conveniently ready, like a Swiss Army knife.
Cheers,

Just cleaned it out.....recent events have plugged it pretty good.
My apologies to anyone else who tried to send me something.

I have a old flip phone just in case I have some bad luck while riding.
I too would much rather chat with someone or read a paper while reading.
PLEASE, PLEASE don't talk or listen to stuff on your cell while it's on "SPEAKER" That just sucks & it's rude. I/we don't want to hear your crap.
This last trip, I put my iPhone in the cup holder. Synced it to my helmet for map directions and occasional music but prefer the sound of my exhaust.
ITS ALL GOOD
I leave my cell in a breast pocket of my jacket so I will feel the vibration if someone calls.The only folks I am concerned with are family and they know to call three or four times in a row for emergencies. Past that I check it when I get off the bike while waiting to be served,maybe check the weather app if it looks stormy. After that I leave the world behind which is the whole point.
