Hi, I often talk on the phone using my wired headphones w/ mic while cycling, but wind noise can become an issue. Does anyone have tricks for best way to talk on the phone while cycling?

I've been thinking about getting a throat mic - http://www.ebay.com/itm/1Pin-3-5mm-Throat-MIC-Headset-Air-Tube-Earpiece-for-iphone-Samsung-HTC-LG-MOTORA-/171069525669?pt=Bluetooth_Wireless_Products&hash=item27d489cea5

Cheers,
Jeff

I make my phone calls when I take a break. If the phone rings while I am riding, I just ignore it.

Cheers,
Nathan

I can’t even hear my phone while riding. 

 

I very occasionally listen to iHeartRadio or music using my mono blue tooth plantronics voyager pro hd.  Seems to work ok listening in the wind.  It is supposed to be good at wind suppression but although that is one of the reasons I chose that model I don’t think I’ve actually ever talked on it while riding.  I’ve had it a couple years so it may not be the current version.  It replaced an even older voyager that I was happy with but that older one didn’t handle streaming stuff.  But the new one only has a range of about 25-30 feet.
