Default one reason why not to

Here's a very good reason not to listen to iPods ect

If I was listening to anything like this on a ride I'd last about 3mins

Great track to listen to while your gettin' suited 'n' booted though , I love gettin my gear on , it's like a ritual that helps focus the mind

Oh, yeah...there are a ton of tracks that get me in the mood to lay down some rubber. I'm not a big AC/DC fan, but here are a few I love to run to:

My personal favorites are pretty much anything by the band 'clutch'. I used to follow them around pretty regularly. In fact, when looking for vids on youtube, I found many from shows I've been to. Kind-of neat, really. Forgot how many shows I'd been to. Just sucks that most cameras can't handle the awesome power that is clutch.
Here's one from our nation's capital back in '01. I was front right, but not the big bald security guy.
Clutch - Pure Rock Fury

And here's a video of "The mob goes wild" Funny vid...I didn't even know they had any real vids... Clutch - Mob Goes Wild

And one of my personal favorite's... "Ship of Gold"

Deftones will get you moving, too... Deftones - My Own Summer (Shove It)

Then there are classics like Zeppelin's Black Dog, and many many others.
I also like some industrial-type stuff for driving...like some KMFDM. etc.

Ha ha... Yep, that's what I thought...
So who's who?
I could definately be the guy who get's his *** handed to him.
(just gotta grow the beard longer....I wear black beanies all the time in the fall and winter, though)

I'm going with http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUXX5HnBjx4 - Joe Bonamassa or some good old classic

Metallica: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQCC2gb0V-Q

Rather conventional,...but blasting it before a ride gives me just the right mellow attitude to eat the road without getting stupid

just go to my youtube channel www.youtube.com/adrenalinc and you'll find a few of his tracks uploaded.
He's one hell of a musician, opened at the tender age of 12 for BB King...

He played yesterday at the Royal Albert Hall in London,....Eric Clapton showed up to "chime" in for a bit...

enjoy

i have a 2 hour ride to my lakehouse, i do everything with music (i work as a car audio installer) driving anything without music is weird for me, but never too loud to be destracted, i even wakebord and ride my jetski with ear buds in, probably not the safest thing to do but i have been riding my entire life with music (even a walkman on my childhood 70 durt bike, i am used to it and get bord without it, even though the bike is fun, i go the speed limit, even on open highways, too many tickets already, i have 300 $ a month insurance on my jeep, witch is slow as can be, cant afford another speeding ticket, the music keeps me occutied so i dont get bored and try something stupid
