Music when riding - Page 2

Man. You really need to get laided don't you ??

And it's KFC. Get it right.

So what would "laided" mean, eh? Oh, do you mean "laid?" Dude, you rock! I hope errors like that don't keep you from being promoted out of that special needs class you're in.

ha ha

And your the one who was crying the other day when CampyBob pointed out a spelling error. Time to crack open a PBR you ******* hypocrite.

Wow, Cupcake. Laided isn't a spelling error: it's a sign of terminal ignorance. Sound it out like they've been teaching you in class this year:

Layd.....
Lay' ded.....

Typing error. Spelling error.

Either way you're a boor

Coming from you, that means very little. Now, run along, little one.

Amazing.

Have you ever had sex where money didn't change hands ??

Even better.

Have you ever had sex where the woman didn't demand that music be played ??

Last word from me kiddo.

Ohhhhhh, golly.

Don't listen to music when riding. Love the sounds around me - wind in my ears, my tires on the road, the click of shifting. I do tend to get a song in my head at times that might pump me up and then thinking of that tune or the rhythm or lyrics will motivate me. I must admit I do love the sound of my Vredestein tires - they tend to sing in a way my Conti's never did.

I'm aware of the hearing dangers, please save the (well intended) lectures, thanks.

Anyway, Back in the late 80s & early 90s I used to take a Walkman along on my LSD rides in the country backroads that were littered with dairies, peach orchards and not much else.
Hammer:Too Legit To Quit was the joint back then, and the perfect riding rekkid...To me anyway.
I don't bring music along anymore, the earbuds get all sweaty.

I understand the many who believe that listening to music while riding is dangerous, but I personally think that you are overrating the danger. There is a good article at http://www.bikexprt.com/bicycle/hearing.htm on the subject.

I personally used to commute with one ear piece in and the other out because that was the law in my area. I now use a set of bone conduction headphones that allow me to listen to my music without affecting my hearing.

im with you, i listen to metal (thedevilwearsprada, dropdeadgeorgous, etc)
... you know, the stuff that makes people think you're the devil when you roll up to starbucks with it playing

Tool, Rush, and lately some REM, Blondie, Police, Phil Collins and Genisis.

Oh yeah, and some Cracker. I love that song they do called "Lonesome Johnny Blues". "Let's go for a ride" is good too, even if he is talking about a motorcycle.
It goes kinda like this: I ride my bike, I drive my car. Take me back to you. I ride my bike, I drive my car. Take me back ta you. Take me ta you.

They're best known for their hit "Low".

I listen to music on most of my training rides. I don't have the music too loud that I can't hear traffic. I live in the country, I could go out on a 160km ride and only see 5 or 6 houses and 5 or 6 cars the whole ride.
I listen to mainly metal, everything from Judas priest and Maiden, Manowar, Bathory, Emperor, Dimmu Borgir, Immortal, old Slayer and 80s speed metal.
Favourite band is Virgin Steele.
Haven't tried listening to music whilst competing in a time trial yet, I've got one coming up in a few weeks, good prize money, fairly big race. Think I'll crank up the Sadistik exekution for that one. Might give me a few seconds
