So there I was tootling down the O.K.R proud of my new handlebar mount and cradle for the G1. I had successfully traversed the potholes and speed bumps of Wickham Road so I thought that the G1 was fairly safe.
However I hit a very small hole just as I passed the Tesco junction and off popped not just the G1 but the whole cradle as well. It arced gracefully to my right and over my shoulder before hitting the ground with a crack. Seconds later an articulated lorry ran over both cradle and G1.
I hit the brakes sharply and gathered up the remains of the phone leaving the shattered cradle in-situ.
The battery had come out and the back had popped off but apart from that it looked okay. Alas no, when I got to Waterloo I switched it on and saw that the screen had cracked in a spectacular fashion. Reminder to self. Always, always secure with rubber bands when mounting phone on the bicycle.
I am surprised that the cradle was the weak link as it seemed to snap very securely into place.
