Dodging Traffic


Because of the crappy weather and personal time constraints I went out on my drift in small sections. I thought to myself, "Gee, wouldn't it be much faster if I rode my bike On my drift so as to make up for the lost time and pass over where I've already been?" So I did just that! I grabbed my bag, slung it over my shoulder, hopped o my bike and rode through where Id already been. After biking a ways I had am interesting idea. At first I tried to shove it off my mind by thinking to myself, "It'd be to windy!" or "It wont sound right." Well finally the idea became over powering in my brain and I stopped my bike and pulled my bag off my shoulder and went to work. I stuffed the microphones into the side pockets of my bag but left them sticking out just enough to hear the world around me. I plugged my mikes and headphones into the Mini Disc and slung the bag back over my shoulder with the player recording. I had the Mikes facing behind me so the wind would be cut down since it'd be to my front at the speed i bike at.
One of my favorite things to do is bike across the road when there's not too much traffic. I got some interesting sounds from doing this. Take a listen...
