2010-10-13/17 - Bicycle Film Festival London

I will be projectioning tonight and all weekend. If it all goes wrong you know who to shout at.

When's the screening, Skully? I wanted to see it. Although, I can get half price tickets through my "connection." So... Actually. Just, bump for Skully's ticket!

Bill will take anything

bff was good last night.

the fashion show was awesome as were gallops.

gallops were on at the end - really good noise.

Did I spot you hanging out with Kristian House in the bar?

anyone heading to E.T. tomorrow morning!?

I'll be there with my 4y/o daughter, riding up from Forest Hill with her on the crossbar seat. Will we be the only lfgss contingent there I'm wondering..? ;-)

last night Bff was great, matt hoffman is a madman!

Good to see so many nice bikes outside too! was eyegasm!

Where have people been locking their bikes?

Cos last time I went to the Barbican I locked mine against some railings and they put another lock around it and a notice saying to call security to get it removed, and they were proper arsey about it.

I think they said something about official bike parking, do we have to use that?

they got valet kryptonite parking set up especially for the festival

hell yeh!

There is bike parking right across the street from the Barbican entrance (when no valet service)? Why would you lock it up to a random railing?

I had to be in a particular bit of the Barbican and had come in from a funny direction. There wasn't actually any other bike parking anywhere near where I needed to be from what I remember.

Anyway, lesson learnt and thanks for the info.

Because the valet parking is about six foot square and already full all the time?

Your response makes no sense in reference to what I wrote. I was referring to the Barbican when there is no access to valet bike parking.

You are correct, I misunderestimated my ability to transfer my brain messages to my typing fingers. I meant something else but it doesnt matter now.

I'll get my coat.

...awkward

Seen some fun things to do on a bike at the festival.
Would love to play bicycle bowling (skittles)
saw some moving shorts,
the cuban rickshaw drivers film ending was so sad

Good vibe

Line of Sight was, as expecting, feckin awesome. Generally the films in the 9.30 slot were pretty cool. Erik Elstran's BMX riding in the first film was incredible. And I liked Courier Effect, although partly because a lot of the Berlin footage was shot near my friend's flat. Day Labour was brilliant.

The film with the painfully annoying hipster types (Grime presents) falling off trick bikes got some well deserved heckles, but shouting BORING during line of sight was not cool, so consider yourself told.

Tokyo to Osaka was good one too despite sometimes annoying narrative.

hehe, 9.30 slot 2nite was alwayz goin to be tough crowd.

highlight was the skinny corny in that lame tricks vid. brunelles film did go on for too long, felt like an advertorial of himself.

Bill will take anything

Well now I know "bill sucks". Will it become the unofficial bff replacement to "bikes rock"? I don't know you bill but well done for taking THAT so amicably!
