Riding an Old Bicycle from Suburbs to City and Back.wav

Groningen, Groningen, Netherlands

I’ve been experimenting to make some good windshields for my Roland inner ear binaural microphones, so I could make 3D audio recordings while riding a bicycle. This evening a decided to record my trip from home (suburbs of Groningen city) to the city and back to home again, to see if it works well enough. At the 14:00 count down mark there a short silence when the second part, the ride back begins.

It turned out quiet alright and although there are a few moments when the wind and the added draft from cycling are distorting the recording, it’s minimal and the sound is indeed like your on the bicycle riding it yourself!

Feel free to ask me about this recording or give some feedback yourself. I hope you enjoy it and feel free to use it, as long as you credit me/us by linking back to this audio fragment.

Wow impressed with you windshield and recording. I made many attempts to get bike riding sounds but always with wind interference. Thank you.
