BFF Bicycle Film Festival 2011

fuck my head hurts, home by 1.30am cycling blind drunk from juno after a great evening catching up, then the usual friday night glass everywhere, dodging hoxton peds :)

#iheartBFF

Juding by the fact that sumo didn't get home until 5am and then spent a further 30 minutes clanging and bashing his way around the kitchen I'd say last night was a good night.

It was pretty ace.

Especially the bit where Laura discovered more playing cards in her bag at 1:30, which meant everyone got another beer or 3.

Awesome night! Thanks for the films and the party and assorted brilliance. Bikes are pretty ace, eh?

And Wake Up To The Muff was as ace as expected. There's a nice feeling sitting in a cinema with loads of people around you that you know and watching a movie made by people you know, featuring people you know. Good times.

Sorry man, I promised my 24hr team dinner ages ago and this was 'the' day we could do it.

If it makes you feel better, my Dad shot the cat he'd had longer than I'd been alive. It's DIY with pets at our place. :S

Better not get crook mate...

Great party Velocio, totally 2008 forum vibes, lovely to see so many bits of the FixyFamily reprezented.... cheers!

Urban Bike Shorts Tonight, 7 and 9 PM!!

Woah, intimate piece.

I found that a bit self-indulgent / narcissistic / emotional porno to be honest.
The guy knew he was going to have to put his dog down, but still brought a film crew with two cameras along.
That sort of public emotional display for the sake of TV doesnt sit well with me.

i totally agree, thought it was verging on the ridiculous, the heckling during it was well funny last night

I think my favourite last night was the animation of the square-off between Lance and Eddy.
Nicely drawn, good story, mixture of cycling & egos, and lots of alcohol!

Anyone know when the alleycat starts today? The printed programme says 5pm and talks about a treasure hunt, but the website says 4pm and only says messenger race. I assume it starts at the barbican centre? I wanna race!

Gutted to miss last night's events. Going to see the urban bike shorts at 9 tonight, after work. Anyone else in attendance?

Start point is Silk Street - that main entrance, 4pm, messenger time ; )

yes great party last night.

thanks BFF and LFGSS.

you are all lovely !

I've got a spare ticket for the 9pm showing tonight if anyone's after one. PLus you get to sit with me and my friend Rita.

Just got back from 9pm showing of Urban Bike shorts. Call me a philistine, but wtf was that film that started with synchronised swimming and what was its association with cycling? Particularly enjoyed the BMX films and the film about Jakarta's fixed scene though.

that film sucked in every way

I thought today's 9pm bill was amazing (except for the aforementioned synchronized swimming one). The belligerent courier atmosphere made it a lot more fun as well. Love those guys, bunch of assholes.

good urban bike shorts.

nice LCEF film.

and a couple of beers after in an urban setting with an atmosphere.

though i am hacked off with myself cos i missed pre ride.

well done again BFF.

that was fun, i left tonight's late showing minus 2 pieces of clothing and at one point found myself 2 rows further down from my seat upside down. wtf. top heckling too...what was that about a dog and hyde park ryan?

Massive LOLs at the fact that the Jakartan fixeh crew quoted MrSmyth at the start of their film but spelt his name wrong - 'MrSmith'.

I really should go to bed now.

It's the polo tournament today. Come down and watch some games at Harper Road, Newington. We'll be there all day.

What happened at the after party last night?? Didnt sound very peace and love..
