Movie Night @ McMenamins: Bikes vs Cars
2019-03-21 | Deschutes Brewery Public House, 1044 NW Bond St, Bend, OR, 97701, United States
Central Oregon Trail Alliance and Bend Bikes invite you to take a closer look at the different ways that bicycles and cars affect the livability of Central Oregon. We can all see that more cars and more congestion are making an unwelcome impact in Bend.
Bikes vs Cars follows the individuals around the world that are fighting to create change. And it gets you thinking about whether you absolutely have to drive for your next trip, or maybe you don’t.
From bike activists in Sao Paulo and Los Angeles, fighting for safe bike lanes, to the City of Copenhagen, where forty percent commute by bike daily, Bikes vs Cars will look at both the struggle for cyclists in a society dominated by cars, and the revolutionary changes that could take place if more cities moved away from car-centric models.

Motherload Community Screening

Part of the Bend Brewing Company Backyard Movie Series…
MOTHERLOAD is a crowd-sourced documentary in which the cargo bicycle becomes a vehicle for exploring motherhood in this digital age of climate change. The film explores the people behind this push to replace cars with purpose-built bikes, she learns about the history and potential future of the bicycle as the “ultimate social revolutionizer.”
Join the revolution and bring the whole family. We encourage everyone to bike in, bring a blanket or low chairs and enjoy watching on an outdoor screen by the river at BBC! Not sure what a cargo bike is? We’ll have electric cargo bikes available for test riding before the movie.
