Access 4 Bikes (A4B), a volunteer organization that is working to establish
equal access for bikes on the public trails of Marin, is presenting a
mountain bike film festival and party, to help raise awareness about the
issue of bike prohibition and to work towards solutions to this problem.

Wilderness Trails Bikes, and many of Marin’s bike stores are sponsoring the
evening. The Bicycle Trails Council of Marin is partnering with Access 4
Bikes in this effort. Proceeds of the event will go to A4B and IMBA CA
(International Mountain Biking Association), who is assisting many of the
bike organizations in California to open up trails across the state.

FEATURED FILMS:

Singletrack Minds is a new documentary film by San Rafael’s Jason Watkins
and Wendy Todd. The couple spent two years filming activity along the
trails, interviewing bikers and hikers and leaders on both sides of the
issue. The film features mountain bike legends Gary Fisher, Charlie Kelly,
Wende Cragg, and others.

ROAM is the second film by The Collective and shot entirely in 16mm film.
