Do you sing songs in your head while riding?

DVD's, no.DustyJacket wrote:Just as long as you are not playing DVDs in your mind's eye.......
Images of fairing-mounted rocket launchers spring to mind a a regular basis, though..

Oh, and thought of favourite riding song - Down with the Sickness by Disturbed. Awesome tune...
Don't give up.
Not now, not soon, not after being continually knocked down.
If you never give up, you can never truly fail.

I don't sing, but I do talk to myself a lot. If that makes others think I'm a nut and move further away, that's all right by me.
In town: .... speed up you old geezer....do you see me, I can see you talking on the phone, do you see me?.....pick a lane fella, any lane...hey kid, yeah two wheels, dig it....no, I'm not going to look at you pimple face, or your low-rider Honda Civic with purple windows....
Out in the county: ....oh my, feedlot - can't say that I like all the country smells....ahh, some more winding roads.....look past the curve Bob....uh oh, tractor ahead, slowing down, whoa! going wide....[waaaah].... really 'preciate that gomer, how about you and mama taking the manure spreader out the back gate.....hmm, think I'll stop and go back there: old school house, cemetery, musta been a town here once, worth a look around....

Singing songs while riding works well when it's raining! -- really helps get the mind focused on the ride and the freedom of being out there, even if the weather is not perfect 
when the roads get really nice and twisty the songs are instrumentals --- classical music, with hard violin, deep base, etc... concertos

p.s. it's a shame the forums have to be rebuilt... oh well... a chance for renewed clarity and fresh perspectives...

Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.
