Mark your calendars! Saturday, February 7th at 7;30pm is the Grand Rapids Bicycle Film Festival at the Wealthy Theater. The first GRBFF was held in the Dirk-Koning Micro-Cinema, a smaller, 60 seat theatre located within the Wealthy Theater space. It was a hit and sold out!
This year, the GRBFF is all grown up and is in the big kids theater, the 400 seat Peter Wege Auditorium. (scroll down for the trailers)

I’m really looking forward to this year’s movies. Last year, the highlight was definitely 24 Solo, a professionally produced film about Chris Eatough’s quest to win his 7th World Championship for 24 hour endurance mountain biking. That film included some interviews with local elite endurance mtn biker Mark Hendershot (pdf).
Here are the trailers I could find for this year’s movies.
