  • Can anyone help suggest the Best Cycling Motivational Music for RAGBRAI?

    Of course, Queen – Bicycle Race (obvious), it doesn’t have to mention cycling specifically, but looking for Rock/HipHop/Dance music with a fast pace

    example: Bruce Springsteen – Born to Run

    (P.S. I am using my IPOD, but I have attached a Bluetooth speaker to my bike, so not using headphones, so please, no comments on safety or not hearing traffic or other cyclists)

    Thank you

  • It seems to me for the last few years, Lady Gaga was played by more people that anything else.

  • Low Rider by War. A classic that sticks to your mind while spinning along in Iowa.

    If this is true, I *will* be breaking out the headphones.

  • For me it’s always been “Where the Streets Have No Name” by U2.
    I think this year with all the heat that we’ll have a little George Harrison “Wah Wah” might be in order.

  • Almost any swing tune or something from Bill Haley and the Comets like Rock Around the Clock. Great tempo and you can understand the lyrics or even sing along with them.
