Film Schedule 

3:00 pm – 4:30 pm
 – Bike Trip (10 Minutes)

Director: Tom Schroeder

Two people bike 500 miles to ask a question at a brewery.

– The Moment (75 Minutes)

In the backwoods of British Columbia, Canada, three small but dedicated crews of adventure seekers were quietly changing the course of a sport and carving their paths in history.  And it was all happening unbeknownst to each other, the cycling world, and ultimately, themselves.  This film is the origin story of a small movement of mountain bikers and filmmakers who rose up, challenged the status quo, and turned the sport of cycling on its head. This is a story that has never been told, told by the people who lived it firsthand.

The Comeback: Greg Lemond, the True King of American Cycling, and a Legendary Tour de France

Greg LeMond is an American sporting hero whose story would surely be rejected by Hollywood as too fanciful. It includes taking on and beating the French at their own game, a near fatal shooting, a career in apparently terminal decline, an extraordinary comeback, and a bitter feud with his successor. Remarkably, it’s all true, and The Comeback is the first book to document the full LeMond story in all its astonishing, scarcely credible detail.” — author Richard Moore

7:30 pm

Bicycle Thieves (90 minutes)

Director:Vittorio De Sica

Unemployed Antonio is elated when he finally finds work hanging posters around war-torn Rome. His wife, Maria, sells the family’s bed linens to retrieve Antonio’s bicycle from the pawnshop so he can take the job. However, disaster strikes when Antonio’s bicycle is stolen, and his new job is doomed unless he can find the thief. With the help of his lively son, Bruno, Antonio combs the city, growing increasingly desperate for justice.
