Weird Creepy Noises Coming From Manhole Drain Cover Matt J 2013-02-10 | Weird creepy squealing noises coming out of a manhole drain cover in Switzerland.

Slaidburn to High Bentham Pass on a Recumbent Matt J 2012-12-10 | Handlebar camera shot from a decent into High Bentham in the UK during a recent Land's End to John O'Groats trip. This marks the start of the awesome 2 mile descent into High Bentham. I even got a little air over the crest have way down, which is slightly unsettling on a recumbent bike at 38mph!For my blog about the trip please see www.crazyguyonabike.com/doc/mattj2011
Bicycle Downhill Through the Twists and Turns of Middlewood (Cornwall) Matt J 2012-12-08 | There is nothing quite like carving a laden recumbent bike through the curves. This was one of the many tight twisty descents a cyclist encounters in Cornwall UK, during the Land's End to John O'Groats (LEJOG) trip. This is pretty much the rider's eye view, but you have to imagine that you are laying down on the bike.For my blog about the trip see here: http://www.crazyguyonabike.com/doc/mattj2011

Running low pressures here- you can see the tyre (and tube) being pinched between the rim and the ground- but no pinch flats during this filming though. It's also really interesting to see the chain slap and derailleur movement- never quite realised just how much they move over bumps.Camera: Casio Exilm EX-FC150Speed & Resolution: 240 fps 448 x 336Tyres: WTB Moto Raptor 26 x 49/52 inflated to 20psi front and 24psi rear.Bike: Marin Palisades Trail (aluminium hardtail ~14kg)Fork: Rockshox Tora 100mmRider: 66kg
