Rolled over to last nights Celluloid Cycles screening and bumped into the usual suspects. The films were fun, but the best part was winning a show bag!
They had questions for the showbags and the one I got was: Have you ever ridden fixed gear on single track? Duh. I nearly had to start breaking skulls for it, but I quickly moved to quash any dissent. Inside was one of those Sexy Lagers, cheese grips, socks, a few issues of One Mag, a pair of glow in the dark condoms + lube and some Shifter Bikes decals.
So if you do go to any of the sessions, make sure you’ve got a quick answer ready, though I don’t know if they’re having showbags at every session.
Is it just me, or are cyclists WAY above average in the attractive stakes? So many healthy, fit, interesting, lithe, bright-eyed and smiling folk - it was heaven!
Jorgen Leth truly is a MASTER, that film had everything… made me hell keen for a woolen jersey too
So that was you eh roguedub? … I’m sure I was sitting next to one of you other guys, but was too shy to introduce myself - maybe next time.
I saw him a couple of years ago. He does some amazing stuff.
The best trials course I’ve seen was on Sooty Park a while ago. The guys were hopping from a river bank, onto rocks in the river, then back onto the bank a bit further down the river. Then it was up the bank and up onto a stone wall, and off the other side.
Imagine all the damage they do to themselves practicing this stuff.
