PORTLAND, Ore. (BRAIN) — The National Bicycle Dealers Association is sponsoring the Filmed by Bike festival, which begins Friday in Portland and includes a national road tour following the three-day event.
Organizers this year decided to put together several short video mashups about local bike shops, tied to the NBDA's #buywhereyouride campaign.
Festival director Ayleen Crotty said organizers want to use the festival gatherings to send a message that bike shops are an important part of bike culture.
NBDA members can contact the festival organizers if they are interested in hosting a film showing in their community. Information is at filmedbybike.org/watch/rescreening-policys.
The traveling show offers a choice between two collections of bike films, each totaling less than an hour. One collection includes general bike-related films, called Bike Love. The other collection is of bike adventure films, featuring mountain biking, off road touring and other adventures.
The NBDA also announced this week that it has a new address. It is:
NBDA
806 South Public Road #201
Lafayette, CO 80026
