Custom trouser pocket on my right thigh.  It's always there, out of harm's way.

I'm 80 years old and don't own a "smart" phone. I have a simple flip phone. I have a leather case attached to my belt, and that's where it sits when I'm riding.

not even a flip phone for me,  just one, attached to a copper wire to a converter box from there, fiber optic, no answering machine, either I am here or I am not, no voice mail, no texting me

I had enough of phones before I retired

…I had enough of phones before I retired

I can understand that Randy.

There are upsides and downsides to the “always available” mindset. I’ve weighed these for my circumstances and at the moment the balance lies marginally on the side of having one.
Regards & ride safe,
