belga Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 Hi i was just wondering if any one listens to music when riding ?does it help keep your mind of the people watching you ? i have noticed it putes my off :$ thanks I do, but not for the sake of ignoring people but for the music.I also found it helps me get in the right mood/mindset/attitude to keep my spirits up when i fail. I started riding a week ago so there is a lot of failing at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maladie Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 Sometimes I listen to some decent DnB before I go out for a ride Seriously though, I stick on some High Contrast, it relaxes me and I think It makes me actually ride a littler better.

sobek Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 I always listen to metal during riding. For me...biking is a way of escaping from daily life and stress from work so listening to music and bike riding is my way of relaxing.But like others said, gets me in the mood.Plus with me living in China, it helps me to ignore the Chinese people commenting on "white devil on the seatless bike" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iAdam Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 For trials I haven't tried it yet, but when I was road biking, I had playlists. These helped, I'd usually try and get dubstep that had a beat that would match my cycling beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belga Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 (edited) To add to my earlier point.I was riding home from work last night and i'm thinking that it was not really raining, it was someone dumping a lake on me. I have actually fallen into pools and ended up less wet than i was when i got home. Anyhow, it sucked big time. Untill i remebered that i had some Gentleman, Alpha Blondy and Bob Marley somewhere on my player. Two minutes later i'm riding along and all the rain in the world could not get my mood down. Suddenly the day was awesome and it felt great just riding home Of course different situations/moods call for different music but i still feel that the one thing that has saved my day more times then anything else is my mp3-player.
