Biking songs

How many songs are there which are all about bikes and biking?

There's the classics like:

Bat out of Hell (Meat Loaf)
Leader of the Pack (Shangrila's)

and

Motorbiking (Chris Spedding)

and one of my favourite groups, the Steve Gibbons Band (who did their best stuff in the late 70s/early 80s) did four

TT92
Harley Davidson
Triumph Bonneville
BSA

Anybody know of any others?

Add Silver Dream Machine, David Essex, to the list.

Of course! How did I forget those!

Can't say I've heard of "Help me, Honda. Help, help me Honda..." though. Nice one! Laughing

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Joe Satriani - Ride.

I know some people like to take life easy,
That's not my style.
I'm not the type to let this life tease me,
I'm gonna make it wild.

I just wanna ride,
Get on my bike and ride.

Some people think you've got to like your life one way,
I disagree.
I'm not gonna pay attention to them anyway,
It's got nothing, nothing to do with me.

Life is so short, we've got
No time to waste at all.

CHORUS:

I just wanna ride,
Get on my bike and ride.
I just wanna ride,
Get on my bike and ride.

I see the road, as it opens up before me,
I feel the heat.
I'm gonna go where I want, when I want to.
I've got to be free.

CHORUS

Feels so right...
Feels so right..

Cheesy but fun.
