So if anyone is in Bend, OR tomorrow (yeah right...), stop by the Bend Bicycle Film Festival. The films this year feature all local OR riding. One of my good friends is one of the organizers, and it's sure to be a fun event.

I'd like to take a moment to send out healing vibes to my friend Erika from Bend, who recently broke both her arms in a crash... while filming for this event. I hear there is actually going to be some footage from this crash at the show, but with a humorous twist. Because how else can you deal with that kind of thing if you don't have a sense of humor!

Here's a short video I made for last year's event that featured Erika:

And if you're not going, or can't wait, here's the one I made for this year:
