Anyone have a iPhone and use any of the cycling apps available? Or weather apps??
I'm considering buying a new 4S to upgrade from my old Nokia flip phone.

I used cyclemeter. I still use a garmin 500 because I'm not going to race with my iPhone in my pocket, but cyclemeter really worked well.

I really like WeatherUnderground (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/weather-underground/id486154808?mt=8) as you can get info from local weather stations (both commercial and private)
Free (for a $2 annual fee you can get rid of the ads).

Thanks to everyone for their input. Apparently most people use Garmins for their cycling...:)

With the battery life being so crappy on the iPhone, the Garmin is a much more practical solution....and with the new Barfly mount, its very cool looking as well!

I've been using Strava too and it seems to work beautifully for me.

I'm a Strava user as well. Love it!

I use Strava, and this is just anecdotal, but their latest app update seems to lead to a dropped GPS signal more often.
Both Strava and Cyclemeter are great imo. And I use Accuweather's app for my weather info.

Its not really a bike app, but for cities with bike-share programs, Bixou, Spotcycle are great for finding stations with bikes available/empty docks.
