listening to your ipod while u ride...
Hey guys. Does anyone listen to their ipod when they ride? i was debating on whether i should or not. But then again safety issues come in hand. Is it safe? what do you guys think? i took the MSF course and it does say to wear ear plugs when u ride to dampen out the wind noise so...i mean that right there affects your hearing.

I do sometimes....but adding noise isn't the same as wearing earplugs.
edit: wanted to add that I usually wear it when I am riding out in the country for fun, not when I am riding to work through the city, too many things to listen for in traffic.

I wear mine everytime i put my helmet on. You have to find the right volume. I can still hear everything and if I think i might be missing something just put your ipod where you can pause it if you have to. I use the shuffle cause its so small and clip it to my pocket and run the cord in the jacket.

I GOTTA SAY I LOVE LISTENING MY IPOD WHEN I'M OUT FOR A LONG RIDE, TWISTIES, BUT LIKE ZZRICK SAID IT'S NOT THE BEST IDEA TO LISTEN IN TRAFFIC. ONE THING I DO AND WHO KNOWS IF IT ACTUALLY MAKES A DIFFERENCE BUT I ONLY RIDE W/ ONE EAR BUD IN.
