Before the sloth, we need to do a little work. Specifically, we need to begin the process of finalizing the playlist. There is more than enough to choose from. The hard part will be whittling it down. There is so much good stuff here. A little bit of everything, in fact: Animation, drama, documentary. BMX, mtb, road. Italian neo-realism, classic 80's sports movie kitcsch, anti-comsumerist bike jousting resistance.
Click on the link to watch the trailer (or something similar). List your top 10 in order of preference in the comments below and we'll see where that gets us. And of course, feel free to suggest other options.

Flying Scotsman for sure. Forgot about that one. I will add it to the list.
Nebraska Supersonic? Never heard of it, but I'll check it out.
not that I'll be there but someone must possess a notsominty VHS of "TREAD"..."Transition" would be solid..."Vicious Cycle".........

Oh yeah, mountain biking.
I have a copy of "the Collective", if you want to add that to the list.

I would like to throw out there that I have a copy of "the search for animal chin".

I'm trying to better my position before one of the nordic crosses by proposing Cyclomania to be added to the movie list. This is mainly because of one extremely handsome and astonishingly talented supporting actor in that gem of the cycling movies.
I happen to have a copy of that movie.
There's a star among us!
Cyclomania gets my vote.
Clyclomania is in! I trust you will be on hand to sign autographs.
I like movies that make me laugh and make me think. And think about how sweet the 80s probably were.
The 80s were no doubt sweeter for those who didn't experience them directly.
