Bike Talk is all about bikes: road bikes, mountain bikes, tandems, recumbents, fixies, tricycles, and cruisers. It’s about ultra-distance riding, urban cycling skills, fund-raising rides, fun rides. We talk about bike clubs, bike theft and prevention, bike history, bike shops . . . get the idea?

After 15 months and 52 shows, we broadcast and podcast our last show on January 25, 2006. There were a number of factors, and if you care to learn more about it, you can listen to our last broadcast by clicking on the link at the bottom of this post. (more…)
Here’s a video; my first attempt to film from the back of a tandem.I shot this on the Mocha Joe’s ride, Tuesday, January 15. Not very pretty, but it’s a start. The sound (mostly wind) has been replaced by some nice music by the David Grisman Quintet. Larry “The Legend” Burdick does have a speaking line at the end . . . if you make it that far. Note that the video quality here is much lower than the original: YouTube does that to reduce the file size. The original is over 500mb - nearly enough to fill a cd.
