I agree... i have an mp3 player n i always use it at the gym while running etc, but i never take it out on the road. Today i almost got hit by a bus simply coz it was slightly over in the cycling lane and it scared the **** outta me. If i couldn't hear cars coming i simply wouldn't feel safe.Future-pro said:Riding on the road listening to music is quite possibly the stupidist idea ever you need full use of your ears to remain safe and in my opinion its a lot more pleasant when riding through the countryside if your not listening to music just nature as it were
