Nah, I find it too distracting even to have my mind occupied with listening to something. Noticed even when pootling about I make bad judgements if I've got headphones on. Each to their own, but for me, it's not worth even a slight change in my focus on my commute.

Listening to music is easier I guess than speech radio. I was always against cycling with earphones but have recently found great pleasure in headphones (outer ear variety) and a volume level loud enough to hear myself speak. I still get the music and don't feel cut off from everything going on around me.

Each time you cycle in, put half the train fare in a pot to buy some bone conduction headphones?
