Saturday Night: Remember 2 Breathe a film by Evan Schmitt, which follows the racing season; DIY, an extremely short film that relates the emancipation of women to the invention of the bicycle, by Lynn Robinson; Bike Messengers in Amsterdam about, well, you guessed it, by Dr. Michael Blayney; Livin' Large with Bikes Not Bombs, by Rob Fine; Another New Bike, an exciting chase scene with a smash up ending by Danny Madden; and Full Cycle, a documentary from the BBC about Graeme Obree (the subject of The Flying Scotsman)

We're still finalizing the roster so check back for additional film listings, but we have thus far a couple of racing films, some dramatic shorts and a lot of comedies!
