Written by Boston Biker on Oct 19

Got this in the email, lovely recap of the films at this years Boston Bike Film Fest.

Hi All,

I thought you might enjoy some of these films that I saw last Friday night at the Regent Theater in Arlington thanks to MassBike. It was fun to watch them with a bike-friendly crowd who got the humor. Many of the films are on the Internet so I looked them up so I could share them with you. Enjoy!
