Vintage Bicycling & The Power Of Film
by Rob Sutter
I believe that vintage bicycling has done a great deal in attracting an audience and it is clear why so many people enjoy it. There are a number of styles worth talking about and I think that they all manage to bring about nostalgic feelings for those who have witnessed such models in their heyday. When you throw in the idea of more modern technology, though, a marriage of both worlds can be seen. Film has shown cycling done in the past and a couple of instances stand out more than others.
While the 80's was a decade that I was unfortunately unable to live within, I love the slew of films which was released during that time. One such film was "The Goonies" and I think that any child from that time could attest to just how influential it was. A group from the Goon Docks in Oregon has their sights set on buried <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/yorkers-already-pedaled-1-28-million-miles-citi-164319148.html">treasure</a> but they travel via one particular method. With two-wheeled rides being utilized, a sense of adventure follows which has captured many an imagination.
Going into a couple of decades later, though, 2004's "Napoleon Dynamite" has definitely divided a number of people who enjoy comedies. For every one person who can see the film for the dumb fun it brings about, there is someone who simply cannot get past the supposed emptiness the movie possesses. However, one of the smaller yet recognizable moments of the movie was when Napoleon borrowed the bike of his friend in order to try out a small jump. In a show of comedy, he flubbed the attempt.
"Pee-wee's Big Adventure" also stood out to me and I think part of it came about because of the uniqueness that this ride possesses. It was crafted just for that movie and it definitely goes to show in just how outrageous it looks compares to rides you might normally think of upon two wheels. Nonetheless, it is a visual marvel of sorts and it's one which has definitely earned its place in <a href="https://twitter.com/linusbike">vintage bicycling</a>. It was because of this film that I found myself interested in the authorities in the field like Linus Bike.
I know that I have left out a couple of other shining examples, though, "E.T." being just one of the major names. However, I wanted to give attention to those which haven't been as looked at as this one. There are a number of movies which have featured vintage bicycling, or even another type, in a great way. It goes to show just how tremendous this particular hobby is and how much of a role it can have on the big screen, many examples serving as proof of this.
