25 min |

ONE TIRED GUY features an extraordinary collection of Kris Holm’s greatest adventures. Winner of awards at Telluride Mountainfilm, Banff Mountain Film Festival and the Kendall Mountain Film Festival this film highlights Holm riding the Vancouver North Shore, urban trials, and slickrock atop the Stawamus Chief in Squamish, BC. He travels to Mexico's highest volcano, El Pico de Orizaba and rides terrain ranging from rooftops in Mexico City to rock-strewn slopes on a wild descent down Orizaba's south face. Has to be seen to be believed. |

The Cannonball run Scavenger Hunt follows 40 costumed riders on an outlaw
street race across Los Angeles. Organised by Urban Bike Assault, the Cannonballers
hit 8 checkpoints throughout the city - from an East Hollywood porn shop to
a Methodist Church in Echo Park - while begging, borrowing and stealing
scavenger items along the way. It's not what you got, it's how you use it. Cannonball!!! |

OFF ROAD TO ATHENS
Dir: Ken Bell and Jason Berry
1hr 47min |
|
|
Off Road to Athens documents the
roller-coaster season that determined the 2004 US Olympic Mountain Bike Team.
The film is fuelled by the high-energy, high-stress world of professional mountain biking, but also covers the personal struggles and sacrifices of 4 men and 4 women who are vying for only 3 available positions.
The viewer is taken on a ride from the jungles of Ecuador to the highlands of Scotland, from historic Belgium to scenic Canada and many places in between, culminating with a dramatic finish that no one could have predicted. |
