music of choice whilst riding

[agentpineapple]

not everyones cup of tea but a few years back i used to ride whilst listerning to music, and there was always a couple of songs that got the juices flowing, one of them was firestarter by the prodigy another was back to black by ac/dc
whats your song of choice.....?

Early Prodigy and any dance music from that era.. how many times I got myself into some silly places and silly speeds listening to that I don't know. It just seemed to happen and ramped everything up when I was riding. Made myself stop listening to it as I thought it made me dangerous more than anything else.

Trivium . Masterdon . Do it for me :-)

I always find highway to hell and thunderstruck makes the speedo increase a little bit. I have to say Im not a rock child but I do like a little bit of everything.

Not meaning to go off topic but had to listen to thunderstruck there and one of the recommended vids on the right was my current fav advert.


Inspiration to all of us largers blokes. Who gives a feck what others think of you.

Not keen on music while riding, it influences your decisions badly and numbs your senses - obviously sound. I like to just hear the engine and what is going off around me. I am not keen in the car either for same reasons.

back to black by ac/dc

Didn't know ac/dc made the stuff to make your engine and bare plastics shiney do you mean Back in Black

Don't really listen to music while riding but i have don'e it, last time i was listening to Metallica on a ride on my XJ and found myself scraping the pegs on most corners, maybe something a little slower for a relaxed ride

When i used to despatch ride i had a boss who rode a fully dressed goldwing, Dave Wolf was his name, must have been pushing 25stone and a big hairy biker, he always had ABBA on the stereo when riding...nobody dared take the piss

That 'comfort' ad is pure class. So simple. Can't touch the stuff due to over indulgence.
Rock screws with the mind if on bike or in car.. Anyone listening to radio 2 on Friday night on the roads can see the effects when ac.dc etc comes on..
A different line is The blind boys of Alabama. Chilled with good beats. Nice when out in the sticks.

I can't listen to music when riding. Anything that has the ability to take my attention away from the important task of riding is far too dangerous for me.

Riding my bike along the seafront on a hot sunny day is also extremely dangerous.

I haven't listened to music on a motorbike in years, but find it very interesting how different styles of music can effect the mood and the way one rides and their attention span. Some music is distracting and makes one ride like a loon and some will be calm and tranquil and have the opposite effect. Listening to music is like taking drugs, there are uppers and downers and it should be used as a tool.

I would love to get some headphones sorted out inside my lid so I can plug my iPod in for those longer boring motorway journeys. My preference of music would be depending on what mood I was in but more often than not would be Trance/Dance on the bike, but nothing to racey or I will get over excited and start racing. Charlie says a bit of early prodigy would be good for me too. How about a bit of Danger Zone from Top Gun that would get the adrenaline going.

Nice one John. What's that, a couple of 1210s or a sampling set up (or both)?

I skipped straight to the transitions
