I can't ride with tunes on as it puts me right off. It's fine snowboarding but with bikes its somehow different.

Having said that I've almost always got a tune in my head when I'm riding - helps with the rhythm.

It's wierd sometimes I can ride with tunes on and other times it feels odd as I can't concentrate. I'll listen to anything from Metallica's Kill em All, Jonny Cash to RJD2 and bib beat stuff.

Highway to hell - ACDC

Gimmie shelter - Rolling Stones

Reckon a lot of its to do with when you're riding. Often an evening has got to be more mellow stuff but weekend harder...

As for top 5:

ACDC: Thunderstruck.

Buckcherry: out of line.

Sweatshop union: The thing about it.

Foo fighters: Breakout.

Jurassic 5: Back 4 U.

Always considered Metallica too heavy but liked their tune on Gituar hero 3  Smile
kona crasher

metallica etc is a bit heavy , Apollo 440 , queen , billy idol should hit the spot when riding hard .

Thanks to this thread i tried riding with music for the first time the other day but only whilst doing some XC on the common. I did find that music really helps on the uphills as you can take your mind off the struggle!

Anyhow, as outty mentioned ooh ahh by the grits - possibly my favourite ever tune.

I find that 'stoking' music varies - from mellow hip-hop like sweatshop union, swollen members through to stuff like AC/DC, rise against, lost prophets and rage against the machine (possilby the most stoking!). If i watch a segment of a bike dvd before i ride, i usually have the song from it in my head whilst riding.
D

my top 5 on my playlist are -

-Beer - Reel Big Fish
-Red Flag - Billy Talent
-I'm a fucking riot, you're a fucking riot! - The Blackout
-Ooh Aah - Grits
-My Friends Over You - New Found Glory

but thats just 5 of 268 songs that all get me pumped:) lol!

if im riding to the trail or to work etc, i listen to music, most of the time i just have my ipod on random.

but its not very often i listen to music whilst riding shore, dh etc etc, i find it distracting
