System of a down syndrome puts me more in the mood to rebel and slit my wrists then to go riding.

I just turn on one of the NWD films for abit.

I don't really need any music to get me pumped to ride, but before most rides I listen to both types of music . Country , AND Western . On rainy days I listen to Hip-Hop or Crap(the "C" is silent). Thank God it never rains here in Southern Nevada .

I rode Farlington (KS) the other day. On the way, I listened to a bit of "The Distance" by Cake. I could really see myself in a race, even though the song's not totally about a race.

I also listened to some Brian Setzer to get my mind into hypermode.

NWD has the best soundtrack to get pumped up to. Preety much any song on the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th NWD will pump you up!

Right now, I'm really diggin' Fall Behind Me and Take It Off by The Donnas, good music to get pumped to.

Other than that, just the usual System of a Down, Ill Nino, Atreyu, Demon Hunter, Korn, Limp Bizkit, Mudvayne, or Static X.
