About the films:
A Biker’s Ballad: A new film from Matchstick Productions which explores the various disciplines of mountain biking in the birthplace of the sport, Crested Butte, CO. Ranging from Enduro to Cross Country to Freeride, the film makers at Matchstick leave no stone unturned. This is a bike movie for all riders and an ode to the deep rooted culture of the sport.
Featuring: Richie Rude, Shawn Neer, Lauren Bingham, Nate Hills, Payson McElveen, Kate Courtney, Will Patterson, Reed Boggs, Nicholi Rogatkin, Ray George, Carson Storch, Casey Brown, Micayla Gatto and Georgia Astle.
Slaying the Badger: Before Lance Armstrong, there was Greg LeMond, who is now the first and only American to win the Tour de France. In this engrossing documentary, LeMond looks back at the pivotal 1986 Tour, and his increasingly vicious rivalry with friend, teammate, and mentor Bernard Hinault. The reigning Tour champion and brutal competitor known as The Badger, Hinault promised to help LeMond to his first victory, in return for LeMond supporting him in the previous year. But in a sport that purports to reward teamwork, it’s really every man for himself.
Suggested donation: $50/car with ticket proceeds benefiting USA Cycling.
Tickets will be required to attend both films due to capacity restrictions, but “Slaying the Badger” is free to attend. To register for “Slaying the Badger” only, please contact director@parkcityfilm.org.
