    Yes. Yes you would.

    I chat away to myself depending on my mood. Sometimes I'm not much of a conversation! But yeah if I happen upon some fool occupying the wrong piece of road at the wrong time, or the right piece of road doing something extremely annoying anyway, I'll usually be swearing away (or laughing) inside my dome. Great stress relief sometimes. But then, sometimes it says more (to them) just shaking your head and wagging a finger...

    Gave up shower singing.
    Talk to myself while riding, helps pass the time. Only problem no one answers.

    What else is there to do!!

    Nothing wrong with talking to yourself. It's when you answer yourself that it's a problem.

    You're just jealous 'cause the voices only talk to me

    MP3 players can be of some amusment. There even funnier when your watching one of your mates head bang down the motorway listening to "system of a down", slamming his helmet up and down . - everyone thinking WTF?

    One thing I have learned is that in some circumstances, one isn't the only person privy to oaths or utterances made in the confines of one's helmet. One may be embarrassed by this, so one should learn to become more self-aware and to pick one's moment...

    when that helmet goes on, i just wont shutup. instead of just thinking inside my head (like a normal person), i have long conversations to myself about stupid things, (eg, look at the blonde in that car!, shit theres a pot hole, etc...)

    sad thing is if got a clear visior so when i start talking (especially around town, i get very wierd looks form the public....
    Well what would you do? Run through the streets stark naked at 350 miles per hour with bells on your toes?
