When cycling I tend to wear earphones (often just one earpiece in so I can still hear for traffic etc), and I use this with an MP3 player (sandisk jam) which is great, except some times the cable gets caught or pulls and I keep having to reach down the back of my top (I run the cable down my back so it isn't dangling in front of me) to pull it to stop it from pulling out of my ear). Most wireless earphones are bluetooth which seem to require a bluetooth available device (eg phone).

Is there a set of earphones, or a way, to have them work with a normal MP3 player? Something like what my home wireless PC mouse has (plug in a USB dongle which transmits the signal to the mouse)....something that could plug into the audio jack which then transmits signal to the player.

Does such a set of earphones exist? Or can anyone else think of a solution? Many thanks!

Seriously though, can't think of any.

Great call. Had a look on Amazon and found one, and I've also just gone and bought some bluetooth headphones as well. Hopefully all will be well! Many thanks!!
