TomTom Rider, GPS for bikes


TomTom made the first GPS device designed just for bikes and scooters called TomTom Rider. GPS navigation is very green: There is nothing more un-green than getting lost and wasting fuel trying to find your way. Scooters and bikes are are also green and TomTom deserves the credit for bring the two technologies together. Now, TomTom has got a second edition of the TomTom Rider with new features.

You can watch the video above to see the features that makes it useful for bikers. It's waterproof so you don't have to worry about the elements. It has big buttons easily pressed while wearing bike gloves. There is voice control which work with a wireless headset. There are several other GPS devices for bikes by companies like Garmin but, like the iPod and other MP3 players, TomTom Rider just does everything a little bit better. Go below the fold to enjoy a funny TomTom ad.
