Bicycle Film Festival Festivities Start Today!
The Bicycle Film Festival is coming to Boston this weekend and we are starting things off right tonight with some Bold Sprints at the Middlesex lounge starting at 7pm. I’ll be DJing for the sprints and my good friend Brek.One will be DJing afterwards.
Saturday Brunch @11am at Grand Union, followed by a casual group ride to some of Bostons best bike shops and local frame builders.
Screenings go from 5pm-10pm, grab your tickets!
Race from the screenings organized by Croth-Jackson. More info on the race format from Croth himself:
This year the race will start nearby the Brattle Theatre after the last screenings finish, probably 11-11:30PM. Following last year’s format, riders will visit 5 Box Offices for tickets to 5 nearby Theatres, there will possibly be a Snack Bar along the way. Also like last year there just might be a couple of hills involved, so start preparing. Faster riders might finish in under 1 hour.
Race is free to anyone holding a Festival Pass (which gets you in to all the movies in the whole festival for only $22, buy online: http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/88244), or $5 for anyone else.
Top male and top female finishers will each win one of two custom-built wheelsets from Open Bicycle and Superb Bicycle, along with a custom Croth•Jackson toolpouch/whiskey coozie combo. There will be lots of other prizes as well. Prizes/Awards at the afterparty at Flattop Johnnies in Kendall Square.
