How is using headphones in anyway related to enjoying the trail? This goes for cyclists and pedestrians alike. If you want to listen to music, do it at home and not out on the trail. Limiting your ability to hear on a multimodal trail where your safety may depend on your hearing is foolish, not to mention the fact that you are blocking out the sounds of nature, which is part of the enjoyment of the trail.
