Previous Attendees Comments
- If you only have one night a year out, make it this!!
- Anyone into bikes will love these events… more people should attend these events, they are always brilliant – 11/10!!
- Much more than mountain biking films. This was a beautifully curated collection of films each with its own story and while riding bikes was central to most the films were about so much more and would appeal to a much broader group than just keen riders.
- 5 stars Very cool event showcasing a great diversity of bike-related adventure and history from all around the world.
- Wowski!! So inspiring!!!!
So… listen to the voice inside you; it’s telling you to go.
The 2026 treasure chest of films includes:-
- a dazzling mountain bike ride exploring the breathtaking landscapes of Norway, embracing the magic of the midnight sun
- a life-changing experience for two adventurous women as they embark to cycle to all the ski-fields in New Zealand in one gigantic attempt
- an inspiring film that captures the wettest, most miserable riding conditions imaginable
- a film that playfully delves into the world of those taking cycling to new heights – celebrating fun, silliness, and creativity that comes with pushing boundaries on two wheels
- a moving movie that follows a father and son’s journey as they take on one of life’s most meaningful milestones- riding a bike together as a family
- a bold and uplifting story of an adventure activist, attempting to break the 24-hour Guinness World Record in downhill mountain biking- all to raise funds for reforesting foothills around Queenstown, New Zealand. Her relentless pursuit not only pushes the limits of endurance but also becomes a powerful symbol of resilience and environmental commitment
- a compelling story about perseverance, showcasing the challenges and triumphs of navigating daily life following a life-altering injury, and how adaptive design has transformed and enriched the journey forward
- and crowning the night off… we all love an underdog tale. This charming, funny, heartfelt film inspires us to believe that we all have the capacity to be unlikely heroes in our own stories. The audience is transported back to the nostalgic 1990s, to the slopes of the punishing Mont Ventoux, in Southern France, to witness the drama of a battle between two giants
ALL in the mix!
