Calling everyone who rides a bike. In winter. And loves it.
We’re giving away two tickets to the world premiere of Bicicles, the Documentary, a look at winter cycling here in Calgary. Created by Calgary filmmaker Kim Kelln, the documentary follows the commutes of a cross-section of people on bikes through the Canadian winter.
If you’d like to win a pair of tickets to the premiere, which takes place Feb. 11 at the Globe Cinema in Calgary, send us a photo of your winter bike commute. We’ll choose a winner from the submissions.
You can tweet the photo to Shifter with the hashtag #frostbike, send it to us on Facebook, or email us here.
Or, you can support the film the old fashioned way, by buying a ticket.
Here’s the trailer, which features snippets of an interview from yours truly.
