Steppen Wolf did magic carpet ride. Good ride song. You could always do "I think I'm turning japanese" by the vapors if you wanna do 80's campy ride music...

Lucky13

ZZ Top comes to mind as well....I like the old stuff though  

Stevie Ray Vaughan makes for good driving tunes too

Edited for horrible typing

Twilight Zone-best somg for highway riding
Sex on wheelz by thrill kill kult for in town riding

Thou shall not kill. Greivous bodily harm is sometimes justifiable however.

Techno music is great for getting me in trouble but I still listen to it.

Also if your looking for some nice headphones I got some Koss ones called "The Plug" they are like disposable earplugs with the foam and real good audio quality. Also they are nice and small for those without huge ear canals and lobes to fit those other "ear buds" into.

Quote from: Rich500Sometimes when I am riding or driving and I want to be calm, but still be agressive, Classical can do it. Certain pieces really make yah ring the bike out, but calm you at the same time. Perhaps I am the only one who feels this way?  

your not the only one

Quote from: Zarathustraeveryone knows the best riding music is kmfdm, the best of metal, industrial, and techno all rolled into one hardcore biking experience.

don't forget Ministry \m/

The only KMFDM cd I have is Attak and its awesome

Quotedon't forget Ministry

Jesus Built My Hotrod!!!! geez... haven't listened to Ministry in nearly a decade... I gotta get a copy of that song

That reminds me a few other great ones for rippin' up the twisties:  
Ramstein
anything ever done by Rob Zombie

And from the Cheezy 80's selections:
New Order
PetShopBoys
Aerosmith (Toys in the Attic)

Anybody familiar with JunoReactor?  Awesome house/techno beats.. FAST.. great for any beat-junkies out there (like me   )  They aredownloadable at emusic.com if you have a membership.

I guess there are just way too many good ridin' tunes to even list them all, let alone crown a champion.

Never heard of JunoReactor and no emusic.com membership. I usually download off the usenet, so I can be anonymous and not get sued!

I am listening to Scooter now after finding a nice video called weekend that was the unrated version....very nice! Oh and the music is good too!

Richard Thompson's "1952 Vincent Black Shadow"
IMHO, best motorcycle song ever.  

Read the words and listen mp3:

how bout what i'm listening to right now.
"buenos tardes amigos" by Ween.  Not the hardest rocking song out there, but i once outraced a tornado in oklahome while listening to this song and old Johnny cash (R.I.P).


BTW.
Fu Manchu is some of the best riding/driving music ever.. Every song is about cars, bikes, skateboards, buring rubber, exhaust. etc... How can a band go wrong with a song titled "Bultaco"?

katmandu (bob seger) :mrgreen: the cop (my neighbor) and friend got ahold of me at the inconvenience store and said i was doing 93 ?,
oh yeah, humans being (van halen)

Springsteen, Meatloaf, the bloody spice girls or Beethoven, it depends on your mood. I even like country after seven or eight pints but that aint the time to ride.

Quote from: Lucky13Hands down, the best ride song of all time (in my opinion)

Twilight Zone by Golden Earring

Twilight Zone?  Is that the radar love song?  Golden Earring rocks!  When I hear the part that goes "and it's half past four and I'm shifting gears..." I just freak out.  Takes me back to the Mojave desert in my 5.0 Mustang.  155mph with the radio blasting..

cam guy if you only have attak you don't know the half of it.  you should get your hands on nihil, symbols, or extort.  they're my favorites.  though i heard their new disc WW3 is great also.

Pennywise, AFI, Refused

I guess it depends on the mood and how you ride. For me when im in a p*ss poor mood or just want to get crazy I would have to say I like the harder stuff  Korn, Rob Zombie, Godsmack, of course sevendust and Static-X just sets it all off.

Yesterday I discovered the best twistie-rippin' riding song  of all time.....

drumroll please.....

and the evnvelop....

*ripping noises*

Dirty Deeds by AC/DC!!!! FREAKIN' AWESOME!!!

maybe it was the euphoria induced by the first good ride of the season, but I'm betting it was the real deal... that song kicks arse!  

I would have to say that the best all time riding music would be anything from Metallica's Master of Puppets or And Justice For All...

I dont think anything can ever top those two.

Madman
