    Thank you for the link. Sweet song, now it's stuck in my head!

    this is my favorite Sarah Maclachlan song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akjHwk9ur2Q But, umm, I don't think of my bike when I hear it...

    I find that any song can creep into my head while cycling. There is never any rhyme or reason for what enters, it just does. This summer when training for the HHH, I would belt out "I feel good". Sometimes, they are church songs, sometimes not. This summer I also sang "Let it Snow" (Texas, 100+ weather). I was relieved when someone joined our paceline at the HHH that also had no problems belting out songs. The funny thing is that the others would join in whatever I sang.

    I went through a period this summer when the Mexican Hat Dance song would play in my head. Not the "da-da da-da da-da" first part but the more musical second part. Go figure.

    When climbing, it's often the final movement of Beethoven's fifth symphony--very triumphal. When I'm trying to keep my speed up, it might be Elvis Costello's Pump It Up (which can be frustrating, because those are the only words I know to the song--I'm so lame when it comes to popular music) or PJ Harvey's Victory (I christen her victory, she'll make it).
