The 2026 treasure chest of films includes:
• a riveting mountain bike ride exploring the breathtaking landscapes of Norway, embracing the magic of the midnight sun
• an immersive film that follows riders on the iconic ‘TransAtlantic Way’, a self-supported ultra-cycling event along Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way
• a film that playfully delves into the world of fat bikes
• an inspiring film that captures the wettest, most miserable riding conditions imaginable
• a moving movie that follows a father and son’s journey as they take on one of life’s most meaningful milestones- riding a bike together as a family
• a compelling story about perseverance, showcasing the challenges and triumphs of navigating daily life following a life-altering injury, and how adaptive design has transformed and enriched the journey forward
• a bold and uplifting story of an adventure activist, attempting to break the 24-hour Guinness World Record in downhill mountain biking- all to raise funds for reforesting foothills around Queenstown, New Zealand. Her relentless pursuit not only pushes the limits of endurance but also becomes a powerful symbol of resilience and environmental commitment
• and crowning the night off… we all love an underdog tale. This charming, funny, heartfelt film inspires us to believe that we all have the capacity to be unlikely heroes in our own stories. The audience is transported back to the nostalgic 1990s, to the slopes of the punishing Mont Ventoux, in Southern France, to witness the drama of a battle between two giants
ALL in the mix!
These short films are a great reminder of why we love to ride our bike. All celebrate the fun, the adventure, and the joy that cycling enables.
