Sticky morning. We had lots of rain from Saturday night to Sunday morning. Then some more last night. This made for a warm 65F and humid Monday morning.

I got a handlebar phone mount for Christmas and have been using it every time I ride. About a mile from work this morning it broke and my phone fell off as I was riding. I wasn't even touching it. The plastic part that goes up to the ball joint deal just broke off. I guess it wasn't built well enough for the vibrations of the road.

The phone case did it's job of protecting the phone. The case is a bit scuffed on each corner as it tumbled end over end. Luckily I was in a neighborhood with no cars behind. I was able to do a quick u-turn and retrieve it.

So that phone mount only lasted 4 months. I may contact the manufacturer, but I don't think I'd trust another one by the same company.
