Know yer cycling history: BFFF



The 2007 Bicycle Film Festival is ready to roll next week in New York City.

Check the site, http://www.bicyclefilmfestival.com/ for any updates in your town.

We love you, New York, and you're a great place to launch a film fest. But the BFF belongs to us wherever we live and ride.

By the way, that screenshot is from the movie "Klunkerz," the next installment in the effort to canonize Gary Fisher, Tom Ritchey, and the rest of the fellows who allegedly invented the mountain bike.

We just wanna see any old footage on Mt. Tam that might have been shot back in the day.

I was trying to post a comment on your mention of Klunkerz, but Blogger isn't accepting my login.

I was going to say that I'm the guy in the photo, and readers might be interested in seeing my website: http://sonic.net/~ckelly/Seekay/mtbwelcome.htm
