No Gears Flyer.jpgVideo: Fixed flicks at the Arnolfini for Bristol bike movie fans
The Arnolfini arts centre in Bristol may have been in the spotlight recently when it hosted the second leadership debate between Gordon Brown, David Cameron and Nick Clegg, but if you love cycling, the news that really matters is that next month the venue’s cinema is showing two cracking bike movies.
Arranged by No Gears Bristol, the event on the evening of 3 June kicks off at 7pm with a screening of London to Paris, directed by Grace Ladoja and with stunning camerawork from David Procter, which follows ten riders from across the world riding between the two capitals to meet up with Lance Armstrong at the end of last year’s Tour de France.
That’s followed by Death Pedal 2, Kareem Shehab’s follow-up to his hugely successful – you guessed it – Death Pedal, which follows a team of freestyle fixed gear riders from across the US showing off their skills, and should be well worth watching if the trailer below - not to mention the reception given the first film in the series - is anything to go by.
You should be able to book tickets online through the Arnolfini’s website – although at the time of writing, there’s no listing for the event – which also has full details of how to get there.
Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.
They do indeed, of course, and they are responsible for the shared pavement on the eastern side and so presumably for this absurd signage as well!...
Do you think that all drivists who kill and maim set out to do so? Are they all intent on assassinating others at random? (Yes, I do know there are...

Sven not so Nys? Not a great way to treat a supplier. Could be worse though - could be the cranks like Shimano. But his son won so why say this?
First of all, trucks don't think. Second, no helmet is going to save a cyclist from a runaway, sentient truck.
Yep, many are just parking on their front lawn, no dropped kerb, probably no planning permission to park there. I particularly liked this comment: ...
It was the side roads that put me off even though they are marked to give the track priority. I was used to taking primary position for the best...
I agree with you. Just enjoy riding a bike. Easy to forget that one simple thing.
By no means claiming that Armstrong was the only doper in that period but your claim makes no sense: the average speed is taken on the time of the...
I suffered a close pass by a BMW driver 2 or 3 years ago. 10 yards later he was stopped by temporary lights. It's all on video: there's no swearing...
