Rinky Dink Sound System

I am the Rinky-Dink mobile bicycle-powered sound system. 4 people cycle me around and 2 pedal my tandem generator, a 24v 200w disk PMG. I regulate this electricity to 14v and use it directly to power my 3way active PA and lighting. From CJB and Peace demos I grew into a kids ride at festivals and a live recording stage for my resident band, DJs and performers. I do green workshops in schools and can go anywhere bringing electricity. I have been raised on donations and my crew like tea and cake.

I built a wheelbarrow based system and a bicycle system after pushing the Rinky-Dink. I'm sure many other systems have been inspired by this wonderful creation.

Ask at your local battery shop for secondhand golf cart batteries. Buy a car stereo. Use any kind of speaker and get the music into the streets. If you can incorporate a charging system that's great. If you can't just charge up at home.

Record information censored by the mainstream media and play it loudly in public.

If anyone's interested in visiting a forum dedicated to all things bicycle sound system related, stop by the BIKEOLOGY website run by the owner of the Beatrix system shown here on youtube and join the conversations, show YOUR bike system off, or get ideas & technical help for building your own systems.

Anything from 1,000 watt plus trailer systems to modest DIY boombox hacks or even just curious onlookers are welcome.
