Anyone else have a fave song to skip to on the ipod for the end of a ride. My local trail has a 15min singletrack descent at the end find this always gets a few km/h of bravery for some reason!

Cheers. Love the way it builds. I reckon it would make the soundtrack to a great riding video, so why not use it 'live'. You'd be pedalling like a maniac by the bottom!

Gillian Welch's [url=

dream a highway[/i][/url] is about that long, iirc. Not the most up-tempo number, but good for woodsy singletrack at dusk.

cult- she sells sanctuary, fading into, nirvana- smells like teen spirit.

and if you're not down by the time the music stops, you're not going fast enough 😉

edit, or you could always tag, tear drop explodes- reward, on to the end.

Prodigy 'Fat of the Land' album, any song except Firestarter (not keen on that one). Caution, the songs will make you ride fast and aggressive!

I always found anything by Rage Against the Machine did the trick or, although not terribly long, Sabotge by the Beastie Boys

I prefer the sound of the air rushing by and the noise of tyres struggling for grip when you take a corner fast 🙂
