Tunes on the move

I'm not a fan of headphone whilst on the move. I like to hear the traffic, but I came across this little MP3 player that clips onto the handle bars. I'm just wondering if anybody has used one. I'm not expecting high quality sound for £20, but just wondering if it is loud enough whilst tackling that step hill to the Rocky Theme tune. :lol:

    I comtemplated it, but then I thought someone might mistake me for the kind of chav that listens to music on their phone in the street without any headphones.

    Indeed - don't make yourself look like the brain dead kids in the back of the bus listening to their music via a tinny mobile phone speaker. Enough horrible sound pollution in the world already. Bin the noise and enjoy the time to think in peace.

    I just have a bit of a random jukebox in my head anyway, that and the voice that's telling my legs to shut up, anymore noise wouldnt get through anyway!

    :lol: I had overlooked the 'Chav' element. Maybe, I'll give this a miss (unless I have the urge to put my helmet on back to front)

    Juke box in the head for me.

    Currently playing "Star" - Utah saints
    was playing "to the unknown man" -vangelis; but I think I've finally managed to get that one out.
