I also noted* a movie torrent last night that has 'Tour de France' in the
title.. Sounds very SBS.. I'm guessing it has a few 'town bikes' being
ridden, but not much cycling... 🙂

Um... don't bother IMHO. It's a woefully frustrating movie with precious
little bike riding of any note. Further, it is a plot wasteland relying on
ridiculous coincidence and finishes without resolving anything.

Ride your bike instead - I'm about to head out on mine now. :-)

obviously you need everything spelt out for you disney-style 🙄

i thought it was pretty good. As i kept telling the wife...

"See? The chicks dig the guy on the better bike!"

Unfortunately my observations backfired soon after when i spotted the bike was a Merida and I said, "What a piece of [censored]!"
Wifey then pointed out hers is a Merida (albeit far superior to the late 80's quality kmart mtb)
"Err, no. Um. backpedal. It was actually a Mr eida... umm... OWWW!$@$#"

Just like any French Farce (or UK ripoff, lock stock and two smoking
co-incidences etc). It's still entertaining.

agreed... I loved this movie.... it made me realise in a way just how lucky I am, that I have what I have, when the trouble these kids would go through just to have that klunker of a bike..!!

and that chase scene.... sensational ending.... had a good laugh at that one 🙂

I enjoyed it but then I like a lot of those weird shows on SBS. I
thought it was interesting that chinese kids used their bikes for
recreation rather than just a mode of transport. I like the guys
carrying the fridge on the back of a bike.

Gah! I didn't bother going home early enough to watch it, based on
Dave E's reaction to it. Damn you Dave!

I like quirky SBS shows.

There's a lot of reciprocating motion, but no pedaling at all - some
spectators
shouting "Allez" ....
