  1. Yeah, I know were not suppose to ride with music, but a guy has to have some entertainment. I am
    searching for a good earpiece for bike riding. Something that will sound good and keep the wind
    noise to a minimum. Presently, I used the Koss sport ear piece and it works ok. Wonder if anybody
    has found something that works better.

    Those flashing lights are mighty entertaining, along with the sirens. the kids love 'em.

    I prefer Sony earbuds. They come with a little carrying case that they can roll up into neatly. Easy
    to put in your jersey pocket or backpack with no mess.

  4. For price/performance value, I prefer Jensen earbuds. They have a lower cost model that gives good
    tone and has ear loops that hold them on snugly when riding. I now most often use a Sony headphone
    AM/FM radio when riding, as there are no wires or a separate receiver/player unit with which I have
    to fiddle. When I used $45. Sony earbuds, I found that I dropped or stepped on them just as
    frequently as the $6. type.

    With my videocameras, I use the inexpensive Jensen earbuds and keep a couple spare pair on
    their bubble cards in my bag, as they are expendable items (frequently) with me.

    Mine cost less than $10. You got ripped off.
