- == 2014 Film Festival == - - The Rochester Bicycle Film Festival is pleased to announce this year's feature film: Douglas Mackinnon's ''The Flying Scotsman''. - In 1993 Graeme Obree, a little-known Scottish amateur, broke cycling's prestigious one-hour record on an unconventional bicycle of his own design. This film chronicles Obree's feat, as well as his struggles with the World Cycling Federation and his own personal daemons. - This year, along with our feature film, we will present an expanded selection of short films, including bicycle films by local filmmakers. We will also feature a collage of the impressive still photos of talented young Rochester cyclist and photographer Zack DeClerck.

We are proud to promote films by local film makers, and happy to partner with other local organizations for bicycle film events. - - == Our Mission == - Through the power of cinema, we strive to bring together bicyclists of all sorts - commuters, mountain bikers, fixie riders, tricksters, road cyclists, weekend pleasure riders, racers, and everyone else who enjoys pedal powered transportation - to enjoy social gatherings and celebrate bicycle culture. - - == Organization == - The Rochester Bicycle Film Festival is an unincorporated and unpaid group of cycling enthusiasts in Rochester, NY which brings high quality bicycle-related films to our Western New York audience. The Rochester Bicycle Film Festival is unincorporated and too small to be a nonprofit organization by tax law definition. However, we are nonprofit at heart; 100% of our proceeds after expenses are donated to a charitable bicycle organization. In 2013, our first year, we donated over $400 to World Bicycle Relief, which manufactures and distributes bicycles for transportation in developing countries. Proceeds of our 2014 Festival will be donated to the Rails to Trails Conservancy.	+ The Rochester Bicycle Film Festival presents feature-length and short films celebrating bicycle culture.
