Work have kindly just updated our phones to HTC 8X which run windows 8.

I'm not very techy so rather than me spend the next 2 years fathoming it out and nail it 2 weeks before they replace them I thought I'd ask here if anyone knows of any good bike related apps?

I'm mostly interested in:
GPS type mapping software (I don't even know if the phone has gps but it seems to know where I am!)
GPS speedo and odometer, more for the road bike than mtb.
Strava or similar.
Any info about downloading routes which I've ridden (possibly covered above?)

And anyone know where I can get a decent waterproof cover and bike mount?

Thanks :D

My advice would be to buy a GPS.

Phones are always a bit of a compromise.
Best to keep phone battery for when you might need to make an emergency call.
Work might not be best pleased when you present them with a bag full of broken phone after a heavy "off"

I don't know about windows8 on phones but I find it horrible on PC and would not use it voluntarily.
