Printer friendly version of this article

Rolling into town on October 2, the London Bicycle Film Festival is as full bodied as a Pinot Noir. Hosted this year at the hive of entertainment that is the Barbican, there will be 7 different programmes running over 3 days. It will house a roving carnival of film, music, seminars and events which bring together the assorted aspects of cycling life from around the orb.

Check the Film Festival site for the other goings on. A few of note are the festivities at Jaguar Shoes on October 2, a Rollapaluza roller race on October 3 and some mallet swinging action at a polo competition on October 5. Why not get involved?
