Just one question - Have you ever tried to use a smartphone with Motorcycle gloves on?!?

Yep.

Do it all the time.

Phone is connected to my Zumo via bluetooth

Zumo acts as a hub and is connected to my helmet via bluetooth.

Favourite numbers have voice tags so I can make and receive calls all hands free.

Cheers

I've been riding for a while now. The questions are to get a general idea of the riding community. Everyone is different, and everyone rides for different reasons. This is what I wanted to know. Will technology ruin the riding experience or somehow enhance it.

I completed your survey and answered in good faith.

Personally I believe technology (especially wireless technology) has enhanced and continues to enhance my riding experiences.

Electronic ignition was great.

You also need a program to break the recording up into individual tracks and also usefull for removing scratches etc. laborious, but do-able. I bought a gadget with a cd rom that has been excellent so far. Have converted about 50 albums so far and about 100 to go. Worst bit is that it is slow, 33rpm slow in fact.

To my horror, I have sometimes got the gender of an admired arse incorrect. Nothing worse than admiring an arse then passing it only to find a ginger beard attached to the front end of it.

Miss Perkins decided that she'd not ask the creative arts class to illustrate that particular quote from the story...

I just wanted one so I could play my LP's, sit down with a nice IPA, read the cover notes and pretend its the 70's and 80's...... I have Spottyfly is I want digital.

My mate got an Apple computer in about 1981...cost a fortune, seemed not to be able to do much when you had seen Star Trek and Star Wars....Computers...they will never catch on.

I would say he just is to gutless to fuck off and set up a racist neo Nazi goat fucker website.

I used to text while riding quite often. Pre smart phones though, and had to take a glove off to do it. Never dropped one either.
