New accessory for my Nokia Lumia 920

Bicycle mount!

I've been riding the bike to work a lot lately. Can't wait to try to Skype while riding... (is that as bad or worse than texting and driving?)

Oh, the device is made by Dynex and I bought it at Best Buy.

Ed, that sounds pretty cool. I'm not seeing your picture, though.

Aw crap, I'll have to fix the pics later. Thanks for the heads up..

The initial road test results are in though. The 920 is obviously too heavy and flew out of the mount the very first bump I hit with the bike.. (good thing I have an otterbox case on it!) I guess this thread has FAIL written all over it! lol *facepalm*

Well there's the pics... I was thinking maybe a couple thick rubber bands wrapped around it to keep it from popping out of the mount over bumpy terrain.
Road test #2 tonight!

Will look forward to it!

Well, the rubber band trick worked.. held my 920 in the mount all the way home last night, and all the way back to work this morning.

They also sell a bike mount in the wpcentral store that holds the 920 well. It's a tight fit but it works. The zipper just broke on mine and my wife bought a holder at the trek store that mounts on the top of the handlebar post that I really like so I will be getting one of those to replace mine. The one from trek is very slim and fits the 920 like a glove.

Added a couple more pics to the first post. The mount has been working well now that I figured out that it has two telescoping "feet" at the bottom of the mount to support the phone even more.
