Joe has written several books and many articles on his bicycling adventures, the most recent in Bicycling magazine. He is a very entertaining speaker, so don't miss this. Everyone is welcome so bring the whole family.

Follow Me at Northern Lights

Or maybe you're an adrenaline junkie? Santiam Bicycle is hosting a freeride film to benefit bicycling for kids! Troy writes:

April 27th at 6:30 we'll be showing "Follow Me". A movie by Ant Hill productions, the same folks who brought you The Collective and Roam. We will be showing it at Northern Lights. Doors will be open at 6pm. Movie will be at 6:30. As always, Santiam will be donating the proceeds to BTA's "Safe Routes to Schools" program. Please bring cash as we'll be doing all ticket sales instead of the ticket box at Northern Lights. I know this is terribly short notice so could you please help spread the word and e-mail or text your riding friends who might want to see it.

Admission is $6.

The film just premiered a week ago in California, and officially it isn't released until May. Sounds like a great opportunity!
