Bicycle Film Festival - London 2007 - 17th-21st October

hey, i still need a team for this! any takers?

also possibly a place to stay saturday night. all i need is a little bit of floor space and im good. i plan on going to program 7 (i think) of the bff on saturday night.

Yup i'm not in a team yet...

But we will match people up who dont have teams on Sunday...

mike told me that teams should/need to be in by saturday...?

so that's a polite, no i don't want to be in your team?! :p

yeah its best if we have the teams in first - but if not we will try and do some more on Sunday....

alrighty. my offer still stands to all. anyone want a lefty american on their team?

kilgore_trout alrighty. my offer still stands to all. anyone want a lefty american on their team?

hey..i dont know whats going on with my team at the mo...i have to speak to dickie...bare with me for a bit..

Just to remind you all that the opening for the Bicycle Film Festival art exhibition, Joyride, is Wednesday 17th of October.
MAVERIK SHOWROOM | 68-72 Red Church St E2.

Come out and show your support. It'll be a good night.

This just in from Roxy:

Get your festival pass fast!!! We are almost sold out!!
£21 gets you into all the films you can get to.
Due to high call volume at Rich Mix they have set up a voicemail.
Please state your number clearly and they WILL call you back.
They have also added an additional phone number: 0207 613 7490

just ordered my ticket for program 7 on saturday. anyone else going to that?
what's the deal with the after party?

Wondering what the story is for release of these films after the festival?
If poor hippy cannae make it.. will he ever be able to see some of these flicks?

I didn't know Vexed Generation still existed?!?

ok, so this is going to seem somewhat insane:
tomorrow afternoon i leave for the US from heathrow. i spend a total of maybe 8 hours in the US then i fly back to england.
i arrive at heathrow early saturday morning.
then i take the bus up to oxford, drop my stuff off, pick up my bike, take the bus BACK to london.
a lot will depend on what time i get to london saturday afternoon. if i'm there in time i'd like to do the alleycat. if not, i'll gladly work a later checkpoint (assuming the checkpoints are all in an order and the organizer still needs people) or i'll just hang out at the finish line...which is where by the way? if it's some big secret can you whisper it to me?
sometime between the alleycat happenings or hanging out at the finish and BFF program #7 (anyone else going?) i need to make it up to what i'm assuming is north london (where arsenal play) to pick up a set of wheels from OffWhite and to stop at blood brothers tattoo to discuss designs with them.
then i'll be watching a series of awesome bike films at the BFF followed by the after-party..which is where and entails what exactly? then it's finding somewhere to sleep and polo on sunday.

in case you didn't feel like reading all that, basically, can i get the mobile number of the organizer and where the finish line of the alleycat is (can be whispered if need be)? and can i also get the number of someone who will be hanging out around the bike festivities saturday afternoon/at the BFF and-or afterparty saturday night? this way i'm not aimlessly wandering around london yelling at people on fixed-gears if they know what's up.
thanks

kilgore, me and tommy might draft you into our polo team, rob has fubar'd some ribs.

alright. i can get into that.
how did he manage to fubar his ribs?

playing polo on sun, and supposedly been in pain all week, then one of them made popping sounds y'day.

yep, looks like I'll be out on Sunday. Went to hospital in the wee hours of the morning, after a 3 hour wait got told I've broken the bottom rib on left-hand side.
Fuckin' gutted, was well looking forward to it. :-(

Damn, hope it gets better quickly. was this when you fell in the corner in front of me.

Can't remember, was it?
it was when I fell onto Michael's back wheel.

you fell awkuardly into your own bike and were a bit dazed, thats all i can remember. bummer still.

yeah Aido, take more than that to stop me! :-P

wayne - I agree, I'll be emailing Hipy for some diet tips :-D
