Hey there,

I am new here and thought I'd relpy to a few things to get into the fray.

When I ride, it's *me* time. Not time to think about my problems, kids, husband, or the world. Music makes me think. I listen to the sounds around me (cars coming up from behind) and this season I watch leaves fall and think 'cud here comes that danged hill again'.

I have not read other posts yet but I think headphones are not a good idea when riding on the road.
