If you prefer riding your bike to walking, you might prefer a MP3 player specifically designed to attach to your bicycle over something like the backpack with speakers I blogged about last week. The player attaches between your handlebars, and it comes with speakers, so you can blast your tunes while you ride (or listen to them quietly). Though it might not thrill those around you, this is actually a pretty good idea. You can listen to your music without wearing headphones, which can be dangerous if your riding in traffic (or even on a busy trail), since you can’t always hear what’s going on around you.
The mp3 player runs on 4 AAA batteries and has 1 GB of flash memory, which holds up to 240 songs. The cost is $130 from Hammacher:
