What's on Your iPod?

Now that winter is in full swing, many of us have had to resort to spending time in the basement, thrashing away on the stationary trainer. One way many of use help make the time pass is to load up the iPod (or MP3 player) with some of our favorite tunes, and turn up the volume. One thing that can be said about the JW dundee's Cycling team is that we have a very diverse crew, and that includes musical tastes. We thought it would be fun to share with you what we like to listen to while suffering on the trainer.

Yahoo!!! Santa brought me the iPod I was lusting for! Here is a list of some of the tunes I have loaded up to listen to while pounding out a cadence-

1. Lets Get It Started, Black Eyed Peas...I just like the groove.
2. Hey Yah!...Outkast
3. Gonna Make You Sweat, C+C Music Factory...I actually hate this song, but every time I hear it, I can picture Dwight 15 years ago doing some kind of weird Dwight-dance. Somehow I suspect that this song got him into the whole Hip-hop scene.
4. Where the Streets Have No Name, U2...No comment Needed
5. The Hand that Feeds, Nine Inch Nails...Makes you want to pedal. HARD.
6. I Ran, Flock of Seagulls...For some reason, the guitar riffs make you want to ride fast.
7. Iris...Live
8. DOA, Foo Fighters...Actually, andthing with tempo by these guys is great for the trainer.
9. Bom Bom Bom, Living Things...I just like the riffs.
10. Feel Good Inc...Gorillaz
