Pitt And Strand Opening Night.

Posted in Events on March 14th, 2011 by

March 10 has come and gone and our Pitt Street store opening-night was a hit. As you can see by the photos, we hosted a big turn out and a great night was had by all. The night started off steady and then at about 6.30 it was pumping, with a people flow to intersect the beer flow. The night was set around the screening of the PH rider movie that was shot a couple of weeks back, and it was an instant hit [I'm pretty sure Margaret and David would have given it 5 stars]. All in all the night was a great success and if you weren’t there you missed out on a fun night.

BFF10 / SYDNEY

Posted in Events, NEWS on November 5th, 2010 by

This year, the International Bicycle Film Festival is celebrating its 10th anniversary. The Sydney BFF is here to raise and reinforce the positive profile of cyclists to celebrate riding in all its myriad forms. The BFF provides cycling and film enthusiasts with an opportunity to enjoy films they won’t see elsewhere – films that span across bike genres, films with international scope, films made for cyclists by cyclists, films with heart, films with flair.

This festival, however, is not just about bike films  – it’s about showcasing and strengthening the diverse creative communities that underpin them. Held over 5 days in November, the Sydney BFF places bikes at the centre of a sustainable, culturally creative city.  The program includes a both indoor and outdoor film
