Finally, after seven years as a member and three years on the Vancouver Bike Club board, I got my wish to do a screening of....you guessed it, Breaking Away.
If you haven't seen this movie yet and fancy yourself a cyclist, think again. This "film" is the key to being a real cyclist!
You can learn how to true a wheel - simply turn the spoke-key 3 entire revolutions on a single spoke and ride off!
You can draft a semi truck on the freeway going 50 miles per hour. In your small ring!
You can speak any language you like, as long as there's a hot co-ed riding a bike who also speaks that language.
To sum up, this movie is a clear microcosm of life and therefore a macrocosm of cycling. Go get it tonight.
