I am of the opinion that "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" is the greatest cycling

movie ever made. I know it's not about racing, or at all realistic. But a

movie that we find to be accurate wouldn't be appealing to the majority of

non-cyclists. Who cares if cyclists like a cycling movie. We already ride.

The reason I feel this is that it shows the passion that a person has for

a bike. Riding is seen as actually fun. It could motivate kids to start

riding more. And, it's funny (many cyclists take themselves way too

seriously). So, what does obra land think?

Le Course en Tete.

Awesome documentary about Eddy Merckx made in 1973. THis one is great because there is no narrator. The footage of the races have only ambient noise (car horns, fans, ets....) that really illustrate how chaotic a Pro race can be.

Plus it shows Merckx at home being a husband and father, riding his rollers in his basement, cleaning his bike,etc....

I know it is a big cheesy movie but I always thought

American Flyers was a great cycling movie. It has

actual bicycle stage racing, Eddy Merckx was in it (even if

it was for about 3.5 seconds) and Rae Dawn Chong in

dolphin shorts! A must see! :)
