speaking of so bad they're good horror movies with bikes, "blood trails" is pretty awful. the description totally oversells it, but it's got a great scene with the villian killing someone by table topping his sprocket into someone's neck. you know, cos everyone rides a bike with razor sharp chainwheels.

We do a community bike ride and a bike-in movie every month at BICAS in Tucson.  We are always looking for fun movies with bike scenes and themes.

You can check out this site for bike movies and other sites for reviews

more obscure and I am guessing not on this list is a film called BLOOD CAR.  It came out about a year or two ago and is an excellent Horror film spoof with some of the best bike scenes ever including a kindergarten teacher splattered in blood and bicycling with hatchet in hand chasing a car full of government spies.  You probably will not find it at blockbuster but worth tracking it down.
