I just got my new (used) bike, and I'm also a big music nerd and love to listen to music when I'm traveling. Do you personally listen to music while you're cycling, and in your opinion is it safe?

Sometimes, but only on very quiet roads.

I find spoken word works a lot better, because I can find a volume where I can still hear the road. With music, I can hear either the music or the road but not both.

No, never. I sing sometimes or whistle.
