Cool tune and great video.
One thing is for certain.... you can't do anything on a dime with a bike..... turning, stopping, nothing. Bad things happen when you attempt it.
I like the juking feel to the song. Nicely done. My only nit was that the vocal sounded a bit too grungy and it's noticeable right from the count in. Like there's a tad too much saturation on them. In the song it's not as noticeable and gets along better.
All in all, another great song from you guys.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Great idea for the video! What a killer track to back it all up! I've got no doubt that Janice could keep up with all the 20 something year olds out there! Great guitar work by Peter btw! Bud, you always knock it out of the park on these productions!
Thanks, Torrey

WOW! Great fun indeed!! You guys rock --so so well. Right from the feisty count-in, Janice sings so well, and, man, I love those harmonies. Peter, dude, you kill it every time. I really love your versatility --chops in every category. Bud, you are getting so good at these videos, and I, too, am grateful to Janice for putting up with your suggestions. Surely You see the reward in your tolerance, Janice. {Psst. I know your man is exaggerating  }. You guys are the masters of teamwork. We could not ask for more Marty. You generously commented on everything we had worked to achieve. And , Bud here, Janice’s “tolerance” is based on her modesty regarding her singing and video appearances! I keep saying go for it  J&B

Hey team. Refreshing and fun tune. Amazing vocals, guitars, lyrics, all bits fit like a puzzle. Excellent video with some breathtaking images. Arrangement and mix is super crisp, listens very well. Congrats to all of you and thank you for sharing! Misha. P.S. Blue bike looks very cool. I love bikes, but I know that if I try hard trail, I will definitely break some part of my body, so just casual rides for me

Pretty classic rock blues tune. Reminds me of times past. Also gives me an idea of the bike and trails thing you guys do.
Billy Thanks Billy. That sound is exactly what we were hoping for! J&B

Loved this tune. Cool musical backdrop for your video. Amazing shots of Janice riding her bike. Peters guitar work was super as well. Crazy tone. From some of the shots I am pretty sure you can turn on a dime Janice. Lol. Excellent production Bud on the song and the video. Thank you Scott for the kind words. We had a lot of fun with this one!

All in all, another great song from you guys. Thanks Herb. Glad you liked it. You are right about the tape sat but that's, for this tune, what we wanted. A bit of overdriven grit and grunge to go with the" rubber on the dirt" mountain biking vibe. So actually we are glad you noticed it You do have a great ear for such. BTW we rarely vary our "standard" Janice vocal settings of two minor EQ bumps > light compression > light reverb > infrequent delay. Been using it since the analogue days. J&B

Great fun!!! Enjoyed the song AND the video. I get queasy at the very mention of the word "exercise", haha, so I'm very impressed by that side of things, too - and I mean that :-) Well done ... another good song to add to your catalogue :-)

Smoking intro, smoking vocals & guitar, and smoking song (and I'm not advocating nicotine.)
I enjoyed the biking photos too.

Yeah! Love the video, both the stills and the live footage. Pretty amazing skills I think!
And I love the song too, lots of fun.
Janice always sounds great, as does Peter, lots of great, smokin', guitar on this one (love the double stops, Peter)
Good write and production, Bud.
Another winner you three!
