Yeah, sorry. The only way to get rid of that KISS song is to think of the line "Bye, Bye, Miss American Pie".Quote:

Ooh...evil! Take this:
I GET KNOCKED DOWN, BUT I GET UP AGAIN, YOU'RE NEVER GONNA KEEP ME DOWN...
I agree that you're absolutely evil. I can't believe it. I'm off on a long ride on Friday and this song had better be out of my head by then... :pQuote:

I'm on the highway to HELL!!!
Or how 'bout...
I would walk 500 miles and I would walk 500 more...
(I really love that song, though a couple of guys butchered it badly at a karaoke bar last week and I can't get their "version" out of my head, now).
La, la, la.. I'm going to stop reading this thread. Oh my god, now they're taking turns since I only know about one line of each. Yellow submarine out in the lead at the moment though. Thank goodness i don't know the last one.
Riding the storm out, waiting for the fallout...
This is the song that doesn't end...it just goes on and on my friend.
Some people started singing it not knowing what it was,
And they'll continue singing it forever just because...
This is the song that doesn't end...
I was going to post that! No FAIR!!! :pQuote:

I VERY RARELY ride with my ipod, in the right ear. Only once this year, on a Sunday morning, in a really traffic-less area. I saw three cars the whole 25 miles, and was watching for them. I like to live to see another day. Most of the time though, I like the sounds around me. Most of my riding is in really remote areas, and the sounds and smells of nature are really nice (ok, sometimes the chicken farms stink).

Today I had TWO issues during an open course duathlon race with participants wearing headphones. First one was in the first transition...kid is moseying through a narrow aisle...totally oblivious of the people actually running to their bikes during a RACE. I had to yell at him to get out of the way.
Second instance was trying to get around another cyclist weaving around while wearing headphones. I called on-your-left...person continued to weave, then looked sort of startled to see me there.
Headphones should NEVER be allowed during multi-sport events. Not ever! This is a brand new race, so I think organizers were being uber-relaxed to attract a bigger field. This field was, by far, the highest percentage of new racers I've ever encountered at a duathlon. I love that so many people are trying a fun multisport event, but it makes me very nervous to see so many who are inexperienced AND adding such an unnecessary element to the race. A race on hilly, curvy roads with cars and nearly 100 other participants.
Bad, bad move for race organizers to set such a relaxed precedent, IMO. Now they will have a b!tch of a time ever implementing a stricter headphones policy in the future.
Where is the "like" button when you need it?Quote:
