I just installed a Sirius satellite radio on my bike. I'm 60ish in age so like the older stuff. Right now I switch between 60's on 6, 70's on 7, rarely 80's on 8, Classic Rewind, Classic Vinyl, The Bridge, and BB King Blues...

I find I'm continually switching between those channels to try to find riding music. I haven't had time to listen to other channels for any length of time to see what's generally played. So I'm wondering if there is a channel that plays "riding" music - "rollin' down the highway" stuff - for us old guys. Not into heavy metal/head-banger stuff. What channel do all you other grey-beards tune to most often?

 

I'm 48...ya know kinda a ol guy, lol.... Personally I listen to bluegrass 90%, and the highway--- country. You may like Outlaw Country---mix of classic rock and old new country...

 

I've heard Outlaw Country is good. I listen to Deep Tracks a lot on XM.

 

Same channels for music. But add 23/Grateful Dead and 24/Margaritaville.

For the times without music, I have 82/Classic Radio for TV without the TV and 96-99 for Comedy, but really like Blue Collar.

 

Burn one then Deep Tracks.

 

49 and I listen the "newer" stuff...
Octane, Lithium, first wave, 80's on 8 and Howard! LOL!
switching mainly between Lithium and Octane.

 

Hair nation baby!

 

Mostly 50's and some 60's. I'll be 65 in 6 months.

 

56 here. About 99% of the time I'm going back & forth between Deep Tracks & Bluesville --- in the car. I have an Ipod Touch for the bike. I put only riding music on the Ipod. When I'm in the car & hear something I want for the bike, I write it down, and once in awhile go to Itunes, and put tunes on the Ipod. I'm with you --- don't want any high-haired 80s, and definitely none of this rap crap. If I had XM only on the bike, probably still these 2 channels for me.

 

I'm with you, with all those devoted channels (Pearl Jam has it's own channel?), I can't believe they don't have a Bike Ridin channel.
