Filmed over the period of a few months in and around Edinburgh by Dave Sowerby, this video of Inspired Bicycles team rider Danny MacAskill (www.dannymacaskill.com) features probably the best collection of street/street trials riding ever seen.
There's some huge riding, but also some of the most technically difficult and imaginative lines you will ever see. Without a doubt, this video pushes the envelope of what is perceived as possible on a trials bike.

This is an 8 minute version of the 55 minute documentary Beauty and the Bike. The film follows two groups of young women from Darlington and Bremen.
Between them, they discover what makes and stops teenage girls from cycling. The answer? “It’s the infrastructure, stupid!”

The video for their latest song ‘Kings and Queens’ is beautifully shot and the reason I've put it here is because, yes you guessed it, it’s all about cycling!
Booootiful!

A quirky little number that does go on a bit but the pictures are lovely.
