Speaking of movies on bikes, I'm thinking more and more about bicycles as a way to provide a broader message. As a mode of transportation that respects its environment (both physical and human), they are ideal catalysts for social change. And that is probably why bike co-ops make sense.
Anyhow, it's been wonderfully informative to follow the list. I look forward in further participation as we grow. We also anticipate the Bike Bike Southeast! to be wonderful. Maybe we could volunteer to teach a mechanic's class, or something like that (brakes, chain, tires)?
Bikes!

is anyone else interested in trading--ahem--sharing movies with the group?
most of the ones i've got are more mainstream--breaking away, american flyers, triplets, etc--but i'd be into expanding our library for movie nights and such.
strictly for "educational" purposes, of course.
i guess email me off the list if you're interested.

speaking of so bad they're good horror movies with bikes,
"blood trails"http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0805185/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.
