was talking to a mate and got onto the subject of what music we listen to when off roading.
when im off roading it all depends on what im doing, something that requires driving like you stole it, requires fast moving music such as pendulum, where as low revs driving is more of a slow rate music.

what do you guys prefer, and why?

I don't have a music player.  I'm lucky if I have my CB fitted normally.  :doh:

I tend to turn the radio off as soon as a particularly tricky bit appears. I am working on a laning day playlist though - could post it here if anyone else fancies a bit of a collaborative effort?

I've been listening to "annoying whining noise made by aircon compressor bearing that was allergic to Strata Florida" for the last few months. Got fed up and took the drive belt off today, had forgotten how good mine sounds apart from that!
