Timely Tips from: Filmed By Bike
Looking for something fresh? Here's a timely guest post from Portland by Ayleen Crotty, Festival Director and Founder of FILMED BY BIKE.
Now is the perfect time to sink into the couch with a big bowl of popcorn!
The Filmed by Bike film festival features the world’s best bike movies. Thanks to support from Cleverhood and others, our festival is shown in 50 locations all over the world throughout the year to strengthen bike communities and help local organizations raise funds for their good work.
Burrito and The Lightning Bolt
When two friends with a deep love for riding BMX become housemates, they discover they also share a passion for motorcycles. So they strap their little bikes on their big bikes and head to the bike park for a day of turning tricks.
This film has always been one of my favorites because the two main characters are strong women and talented riders. Their love for BMX shines through and it’s obvious they’re having so much fun together. The riders are cool, and this film is ultra cool.

Tracks of Planai
Don’t blink or you’ll miss it! This film is short - only one minute long - lush and poetic. Tina Lagler and Blaž Miklič of OSM films are a filmmaking duo from Slovenia. When they’re not working on commercial projects, they love to create passion pieces like this gorgeous one.

Flow Ride
I think we could all use a hearty laugh right about now, and Flow Ride by Mike Vogel is sure to do the trick. Mike is a Portland, Oregon-based filmmaker who creates films specifically with the Filmed by Bike audience in mind. He definitely knows how to make people laugh!
