Do you listen to music while cycling? (kbin.social)

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?

I like it very much. I like listening to podcast but bone conduction + riding on a bike is not a good mix to really focus on a good podcast. It is good for listening to music with a certain "beat", like when you exercice or are on a long road. Not really good for more nuance quiet music.

Good to know! Thanks for the info, it sounds like they’re not for me
