The film documentary we’re co-producing ‘Mountain Biking – The Untold British Story’, has not only smashed its crowdfunding goal … but our partners have started filming in earnest.

We’re now trying to push the total over the £20,000 mark, in the final hours of the crowdfunding programme. As Gary Fisher explains, we still need your support …

With our award winning partners Blue Hippo Media, working in association with a list of wholly British sponsors Orange Bikes and Hope Technology, with support from Cotic Bikes and Natural Resources Wales, we’ve got a sneak peek from the weekend’s action, featuring MTB maverick Geoff Apps and … some drones:

Barney Marsh takes the word ‘career’ literally, veering wildly across the road of his life, as thoroughly in control as a goldfish on the dashboard of a motorhome. He’s been, with varying degrees of success, a scientist, teacher, shop assistant, binman and, for one memorable day, a hospital laundry worker. These days, he’s a dad, husband, guitarist, and writer, also with varying degrees of success. He sometimes takes photographs. Some of them are acceptable. Occasionally he rides bikes to cast the rest of his life into sharp relief. Or just to ride through puddles. Sometimes he writes about them. Bikes, not puddles. He is a writer of rongs, a stealer of souls and a polisher of turds. He isn’t nearly as clever or as funny as he thinks he is.
