So I'm guessing that those of you that are against listening to music, don't chew gum when you ride and don't get a drink out of your water bottle? All of these things could be a distraction. And I'm absolutely sure that you don't listen to the radio in the car, engage in conversation, or talk on the cell phone? Yeah right!

Ambiant music at a low volume in the background is less of a distraction than most of those things I have listed.

Truth is many of you do like to pass judgement and it is YOU that are contributing to the cyclists reputation. I've been on this board for less than 2 weeks and a good many of you have confirmed my long standing opinion of "roadies". Many are friendly good people, but some of you are unreal! Judge not for you my friend are also being judged!
