Yeah, the album’s been out for over a year now, but I keep getting requests to make A Cautionary Tail shorter. Well, that finally happened. I cut it down from 13 minutes to a more manageable length and you can now hear it on the latest episode of Accident Hash with C.C. Chapman. Check it out!
Also, if you’d like to play it on your podcast, it’s now available at matthewebel.com/podsafe
The electric bike has become a regular part of life for me now… but repetitive jolts to the hindquarters don’t have to be.

The first live recording has just hit Matthew Ebel dot net- an intimate house concert at C.C. Chapman‘s place in metro west-west-waaaaaay-west Boston.

Any time you’re riding a vehicle of any kind, safety should come first. There’s no point to saving the planet if you’re not going to be around to enjoy it.

For the record: I wasn’t there, I’m running on the video footage.
Have you ever heard of Richard Cheese? He’s the guy who takes hard rock tunes like “Smells Like Teen Spirit” and “Down With The Sickness” and turns them into cheesy lounge numbers. It’s his shtick, and he’s made a career out of it. Sort of like Weird Al with no creativity.
It’s like he adds a touch of class to dirty, grungy rock music.
Apparently Cheese proved how completely devoid of class he is at the recent New Media Expo in Vegas. To quote some attendees:
When Richard Cheese started his performance he started complaining about the Audio levels, and from what I heard later he had demanded from the organizer that all other prior performers audio levels be at a lower level then his.

[Video from the event can be found at this link, assuming Cheese hasn't sued him yet.]
[Too late... you'll have to find video on your own, it seems.]
Everywhere I go I get funny looks. People also seem to be interested in the bike, too.

So now I have a pile of high-tech parts. How easy will it be to turn a street bicycle into an electric vehicle?

I mention Sheldon Brown in this video as well. Sheldon is the quintessential bike nerd with all kinds of helpful articles on bike maintenance. If it can be done, he’s got a procedure for you to read through. Believe me, it’s a lot easier than working on your car.

Of course you can find Matthew Ebel Ringtones over at myxer.com/matthewebel, as well as make your own ringtones. But Myxer has also jumped on board to sponsor a project I call The Myxercycle.
The beginning of this whole experiment starts with the parts. Here’s what it takes to create a gas-free ride. Or, at least, here are all the bits and pieces I’ll need to put together on the island.

If you’ve caught some of my previous posts on Environmental Issues, you’re probably aware that I’m keenly interested in protecting the environment. I’m also keenly interested in not being a pain in the ass about it- I’m not going to tell you to move into a house made of cow dung and become a vegan because it’s the only way to live correctly.
I’m a geek, for heron’s sake, I prefer the high-tech methods of saving the world. And I don’t want my house to smell like poo.
So on the less-extreme side of environmentalism, I recently partnered with an awesome company named Myxer to bring you a whole series of videos and posts about some alternative transportation. It’s graceful, it’s technological, and it’s a lot cheaper than a Prius (a hell of a lot cheaper than a Tesla).
Keep your eyes here for more of what I’m calling The Myxercycle. I’ll be posting some videos soon!
