Your score is awesome, well arranged, well played, and interesting listening, dkatz1. I enjoyed hearing this. I hope this work makes it to Knoxville, at the next Big Ears Festival. It blows minds. It is unique, different, and challenges thoughts.

I did meet Sheldon Brown, as he was in Newton, MA....I don't always work on my music when I'm riding my bike (in my head, of course) but I certainly have some times. And I hear those meter changes in my head and figure out which I like and think work (i.e. flow in a natural way)....but that doesn't seem to affect my pedaling...it's seperate.


So far, I've never walked up a hill.

I do, sometimes, slow to a crawl, like 5MPH...almost slow enough to tip over.

I think going up a hill that slow actually becomes harder...it's as if gravity has more affect (is that even possible?). If I push myself as hard as I can, and go a little faster, it actually seems less difficult...(maybe)

Thanks for the kind word. With 21 people to move around, I doubt that Knoxville would be willing to pay enough for us to go (and we work cheap). A group this size is NOT very practical...we're in Boston...we could play in new york, except we can't really afford to go there, let alone half way acorss the country.

Music is the best while cycling,

I have loved music big time, my whole life, and devoted myself to it. I have almost 5000 CDS, and countless other recordings, LPs, you name it....when the ipod was first invented, i tried cycling with it a few times. And that was that: one of the things I love about riding my bike is that it is a wonderful, simple pleasure, part of that being that it leaves me ALONE with my thoughts. I found listening on bike a hassle, and it's dangerous, too.

Also gives me a chance to listen to the music playing inside my head.
