Music while riding

[Micheal Artindale]

When I ride, i like music playing. I have a walkman, and a discman(not
actually sony for either). I do not own an MP3 player yet.

I either listen to the local radio(country, or rock) or some cds(mainly
country)

What about you?

Micheal

I am not a redneck.

If i didnt have headphone one, cranked with music, i would hear 2 types of
noises... both are bad.

1) Animals, expecially bears. Although, we only have black bears.

2) Creaks and groans of my bike. Those noices would dive me more insane than
i already am.

I prefer the fast country music.... nothing like the devil going down to
Georgia

When I ride, I tell the voices in my head to start singing - hopefully
something I like ;-)

Steve "don't want no headphones..."

tunes make my commute a lot more enjoyable, I like a lot of different
stuff as long as the beat either matches my heartrate or cadence. but
music on the trail? it's never even crossed my mind, then again some
peoples idea of a trail (especially some floridians) could be boring
enough to warrent the distraction.

I try to avoid pedestrian traffic that's listening to music while they walk -
and are unable to hear my bell.

QOTSA makes me go faster, or at least it seems to.

I finally broke down and bought one. I got one that is flash memory based
(no skips) and and it has been a nice addition to my (non bike) workout
routine. I don't think I'd wear it while riding though.

I regularly bump riders out of the commuting lane when I have to shout
at them because they're in a private iPod oblivion and can't hear me
repeatedly belting "On left!"
I have QOTSA/Sabbath/Slayer going through my head all day, so I don't
need headphones. However, at the end of long rides, I often get some
strange Hall & Oates frequency. If I'm really bent, I'll hear "Frere
Jacques", over and over....

It's waaaay better than "Alouette", so just be thankful for small mercies. ;-)
The CNC router today was working on a beat that just started that going in my
mind, and it took me all frikkin' day to shake it. Ugh! <shudder>

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
a tale of a fateful trip.
That started from this tropic port,
aboard this tiny ship.

Worse than a bad case of hiccups.

Probably. I know which show it refers to, but having grown up in England, I
don't know the tune or any of the words. ;-)

I WIN!
