Radio or Ipod for touring?
Which do you prefer?
I plan to take a $5 pocket radio along on my pacific coast tour this summer. I enjoy listening to local stations when I travel to get a feel for the towns that I visit. On the other hand, my tastes in music are relatively narrow (classic rock, country, classical) and I suspect that sometimes it would be nice to be able to listen to exactly what I want while climbing a tough hill or fighting a headwind or relaxing in the tent and all the local radio stations are annoying.
