Things you say to yourself in your helmet when riding!

[sgtp]

When I used to commute from the rappa to wellytown, following the hutt river on SH2, I started singing the old man river song in the voice of the guy in this clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eh9WayN7R-s .....only knew three words to the song though

Also during my start of riding, I found my self singing this queen song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eM8Ss28zjcE .....only knew 5 words to that one, lol

But that is when the wine flows

It's ok then ... we have plenty of wine ...

"They'r coming to take me away haha... they'r coming to take me away hoho hihi haha...to the funny farm...."

"They'r coming to take me away haha... they'r coming to take me away hoho hihi haha...to the funny farm...."

so there is some one else that sings this, I sing this when I'm on a long haul on a nice day

Much like many others the perennial favorite of some variation of: "You f**king arsehole" is often uttered along with "come on, come on, come on, move you fat lazy git". Singing Gaslight Anthem's Handwritten when I feel really bored and whenever I see a scooter I can't help but growl "Get a real bike".

Sometimes I sing this song when cagers nearly take me out on the road...

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough

Hmm, for me it would have to be "...What _are_ you doing?" or other mental wtf's.

No music in my head, but I will often mentally debate the route to take "hmm, this time of day I could just nip through there..."

And one for commuting through farmland - "ugh, I didn't notice that smell when I drove through here last". And on the smell side, I do notice those 'special' places where there is obviously some sort of sewer blockage (like Hamilton East side of bridge street bridge, from time to time).

When I just started riding on the road,I'd give myself little pep talks, especially around scary tight corners.

On the open road, I'm not a hugely balsy rider. I much prefer the track, where I'm still not a devil may care, but I feel safer.

When I was dirt riding, I'd be berrating myself when I was being a wuss about a particularly big rut or annoying as hell deep soft sand.

Now on the open road, I just tend to sing really bad renditions of Adele or Whitney Houston. I'm sure the hounds in surrounding areas are still howling in unison.

Ahhhhhhhhh! So that was you the other night... Was wondering what set off the dogs in our neighbourhood. Thought it was just the moon!

Are you sure it wasn't just you sprouting hair all over and going to deal to the sheep?

That's baaa-aaaaaa-aaad!

[007XX]

That's baaa-aaaaaa-aaad!

Only if they're wearing gumboots apparently

[Retep5]

Going past bad cow smells. "Sweet and pungent cow"
When cages do something stupid. "Oooo Yep"
When tired "Snap out of it concentrate .... concentrate"
When Raining "Slow and easy"

Humming in my helmet.

That's about it for me otherwise I listen to the radio and sing along .

[Tigadee]

Don't need to any more, but the first few times riding in rain, I sang to myself "Singing in the rain" to calm my nerves...
