If you rock an Ipod when Solo - What is your playlist?

[Chewyeti]

I did some solo riding this weekend, and rode with my buddy IPOD.

I found that tenacious D, ZZtop and the Chilli peppers made the best climbing music!

what do you rock when rockin solo?

[northshore]

Linkin' Park, Jay-Z, Kanye West, any old skool 1980s hip hop.

[Fired Yo Momma]

Dropkick Murphys, The Briggs, Flogging Molly, Supersuckers, Social D, Rancid, The Tossers. The list goes on and on.

[PacMan]

I like just about everything when I'm not riding, but for some reason almost my whole "Ride" playlist is rap/hip hop. I have some stuff from the ROAM soundtrack threown in for good measure. I also have a definite vibe in mind in the order of the songs. I have some stuff that gets me in the mood in the beginning and some more flowy stuff after that, then slightly more up-tempo then more mellow towards the end.

[Evil Chocula]

Black Francis, Evil Nine, The Roots, White Stripes, Jack Johnson (for now).

[dstepper]

No music I like the sounds my bike makes, especially when I ride my singlespeed and the only thing I hear is the nobbies hitting the dirt.

[~ Pakiha ~]

+44, 311, Angles and Airwaves, Ataris, Audioslave, Beastie Boys, Beck, Black Eyed Peas, The Cardigans, Dave Matthews Band, Evanescence, Gnarls Barkley, Gorillaz, Green Day, Harvey Danger, Incubus, Jack Johnson, Jimmy Eat World, Korn, Linkin Park, Live, Metallica, Muse, Papa Roach, Queen, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Simple Plan, Smash Mouth, Snow Patrol, Something Corporate, Soundgarden, Sum 41, System of a Down, Three Days Grace, The Used, U2, ....

[atomrat]

This is my normal playlist, I don't use a special one just for riding. If I did, it would be only the heavier stuff.

1.) wind whistling in the trees
2.) birds chirping
3.) tires gripping the dirt
4.) water flowing
5.) whatever song I get in mind to match my climbing cadence

Mines on shuffle most of the time.

Even I think that's ghey, and I shave my legs!

Long sustained climbs usually are treated to a playlist of instru-metal a la pelican, tides, mouth of the architect, etc. Shorter climbs and more rolling terrain often sees the f**cking champs, hematovore, or a variety of other instrumental bands. Often I'll put on some good metal (amon amarth, behemoth, maybe black dahlia murder) if I'm riding hungover and trying to wake up. And sometimes I like singing along to hip hop while I ride.

Most of the time I can decide though, and I leave the 'pod on shuffle. that's when I remember to bring it.

Here's my playlist from 11.9.07:
