It's almost time for Paris-Roubaix now, so I'll have to mention "A Sunday in Hell."

I watched "The Bicycle Thief" about two weeks ago . Definitely worth watching. I found the DVD at the local Library!
Also, I think there's a movie called "QuickSilver", that is about urban cycling.

The wife picked up a copy of American Flyers at Big Lots for $3. Better than renting it!
...Cople years ago she found Lances Big 6, highligths form his 6 wins. Only paid $2 at Big Lots. But she has the patience to look through big boxes of carp!

Triplets of Belville.
Animated classic concerning the kidnapping of a TdF rider and his rescue by his Mom, the dog and with musical accompaniment by the amazing Triplets. Action on two continents and absolutely no dialogue. An inspiring work!
