Music to my ears

I celebrated my 27th birthday recently, and from the family I got an MP3 player. I've started using it my daily commute to work on my bike. I know what you are all thinking, "You shouldn't be riding with headphones." But if you set up the volume right, you can hear almost everything that goes on around you. So now i'm a huge fan of riding with music in my eats.  There's nothing better than ripping up St Kilda Road during peak hour, with System of a Down and Butterfingers pushing me to ride harder and faster. I've also found that I've increased my average speed by about 2km/h. If you've never ridden with music in your ears, i recommend that you give it a go, just don't have the music too loud. Also, Jaggard clothing have designed their clothing with special headphone cable routing built into their jackets and jerseys, pretty cool eh!!
