Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

seeking phone wallet for iphone 7 plus - recommendations?

I'd like to find a phone wallet for my iphone 7 plus. The Silca phone wallet looks great but I'm not sure that it would fit my phone. https://silca.cc/collections/silca-a...s/phone-wallet

It would be nice to get something waterproof. Yes, the iphone 7 line is waterproof but I'd prefer not to rely on it.

Any advice on something similar that would fit an iphone 7 plus?

Quart size Ziplock freezer bag with the plastic closing thing. That's what I use. You can get about 30 of them for $5. You can also see who is calling and operate the screen right through the bag! Genius! Also, yes, the iPhone 7 plus is waterproof, but it ain't sweat proof. Sweat is a lot tougher on things than water!

This. Cheap and effective. So easy to use the phone through the bag. I have the standard Apple silicone cover. You can easily keep license, credit card, and a twenty between the phone and case. No chance of anything falling out.

I just have my 7s in an Otter Commuter and figure if the phone is built to deal with kids dropping them in the toilet, it can handle a wet bike ride. AND, if it is really, really, raining, I'll probably have a rain slicker on or be heading home.
