Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

The Bicycle Film Festival is awesome!! If you or anyone you know is in Chicago - definitely check it out!!

There will be movies about BMX riders and BMX history, movies about bike messengers and the alleycat street races they throw all over the world, movies about mutant bicycle gangs and more!!

We will also be showing "A Sunday In Hell" which has got to be one of the most amazing bicycle movies ever starring Eddie Merckx and other classic and amazing racers!

Come out all you Chi-town bikers!!

Fun for the whole family!

best,
Ashira

Hi All,

The Bicycle Film Festival is in Chicago August 10-12.
https://www.bicyclefilmfestival.com

It is our first time in the Windy City. We look forward to some bike
movie fun in Chicago.

We are screening "Warriors: The Bike Race" with MASH. Do not miss it.
It will be tons of fun.

"A Sunday In Hell" which I consider one of the greatest cycling films
ever made is playing as well.

I recommend getting your tickets ahead of time at the site.
https://www.bicyclefilmfestival.com


Our friends Rooftop Films is screening BIKE Aug.4 at 9pm in NYC.
https://www.rooftopfilms.com/show_06-bike.html

I hope that you can make the Chicago shows or at least tell your
friends out here to come out.

Thanks and bike on,

Brendt Barbur

I bought my ticket. I don't have time or money right now to see all of them, so I picked session 6. It looks to have a good range of fun shows.
