Rock and Ride: NPR's Urban Cyclist Music Playlist

Check out these beats that NPR picked for urban bikers!

As of today's writing, my ever-evolving list would include the following (a classic|eclectic mix):

1. Wide Eyes/Local Natives
2. Black Dog/Led Zeppelin
2. Ring My Bell/Anita Ward
3. How Do You Like Me Now?/The Heavy
4. Handshakes/Metric
5. Many Moons/Janelle Monáe

quicker than a ray of light!

Now I wonder what the calitexican was listening to the afternoon I caught her rockin' the Panhandle?

And you (yes, all of you)! What would be on your urban cycling playlist?

Thanks, guys, for your music selections!

@Yokota - will listen to your mix when I'm at home!

Any other would-be dj's out there want to weigh in?

Hola Hernan! Thanks for sharing your list of bike songs! I'm glad to see you've joined the cycle chic blogosphere! I need to visit B.A. pronto!

Hola Kristin
Well, you were pretty close. I followed your brazilian holiday in Vélo Vogue. Yes, I've joined the cycle chic sphere, inspired both by Mr Cycle Chic himself and your own blog!

I did get to Argentina on my trip - but only Puerto Iguazú, and the Cataratas! I'll be following Cycle Chic Argentina style on your blog then, and hopefully visit in 2011!

@meli - In the music video in my mind, Ring My Bell feels like your theme song (Mine would be Black Dog).
