Where do you carry your mobile 'phone when riding?

I answered in my joddy pocket - its zipped. Helps if you actually zip it up though...today Arion and I were out hacking and a cyclist came up behind us with no warning - I was sauntering along on the buckle and Arion spooked and leapt forward with me almost falling off - my phone must have fallen out of my pocket during the almost falling off and I realised it was not in my pocket when I got back to the yard. Luckily I retraced my steps and found it - could have been anywhere though as I had spent a good few hours whizzing round the forrest. So yeah, if you have a zip, use it :D
 
There's so many of us with our phones wedged down our bras that perhaps the bra manufacturers ought to take note?

And I'm glad some of you carry other things as well. I'm the butt of many jokes round here as I tend to stuff anything I might want in my bra - mobile, penknife, box of matches, car keys, Extra Strong mints, dog titbits etc. I lent my very smart evening bra to a local farmer (we're a bit rural down here) to wear in the village panto, and he was most disappointed when it was delivered to him with no 'extras'.

I've met one woman who said she carried her mobile inside her riding hat. Sounded totally surreal, and she admitted that when it rang her friends called her The Alarm Clock.

thanks for all the replies
 
in my jhod pocket but if im wearing jhos that dont have pockets i have a clip on tingy that i clip to m jhods or when its cold i put it in a coat pocket
 
Generally in the pocket in my jods....learnt my lesson trying to shove a blackberry down my chaps (was ok until i actually took it out and tried to put it back in again whilst on board..hello ripped chap stitching!). It gets better in the winter when I have a coat thought as have zipped pockets!

I'm the same as you never had a problem mines made of that neoprene so stretchy and had along velcro strap so I use it when I'm working outdoors on my arm and sometimes when riding I strap it round my leg just under the knee at the side it has never moved and I've had it for about 10 years.:D

Bra! Read a few stories about people having serious injuries from falling off on theirs (someone in H&H mag not long ago reptured her spleen I think) and broken pelvises etc. Can't seem to fit my brick-phone in one of those phone holders so bra it is :D

You can't fit it in a holder but you can in your bra?? Either you wear a bra that is too big for you to fit a brick-phone in or your using it to fill the space (smiley here)

Guys - do NOT under any circumstance put your phone in your bra. I have been warned (very strongly) about the implications of causing damage to your breasts if you fall. I used to do it quite happily until then...
