Midweek Movies To Make You Feel Good

We’re not looking out the window because the sun has stopped shining and we’re pretending that there isn’t rain running down it. Aimlessly perusing the internet is dangerous, because it’s full of news, which is mostly bad. So come on in to our screen time cocoon and wrap yourself up in some feel good vibes. We’ve got five videos to turn hump day into a gloriously groomed take off. Move your mood on up!

1. London Lockdown with Bernard Kerr

Music to make you dance like a puppet, feel good bike flying tricks, and A DOG IN A BASKET. Just look at that cute face, those floppy ears flapping in the wind, yes we’re still talking about the dog.

2. Dennis Enarson’s Right Here

Get past the first few minutes of painful incidents and it’s just clip after clip of ‘what did I just see?’. Helmet use appears totally spurious, skin is neglected, but oh my, what tricks.

3. Fumbling Around

A video with a title like this perhaps ought to struggle to make it through a NSFW filter, but fear not, it’s all wholesome stuff. Yes, it’s skateboards, no it’s not bikes, but if it doesn’t put a smile on your face watching this then what will. Be sure to stick with it to the end.

4. Dear Skateboarding

Yup, more skateboarding, but plenty of sentiment that mountain bikers can relate to. Effort, friendship, belonging, joy. Different tool, very similar effect.

5. I Missed This

And, back to mountain biking. This guy is going to wonder where all the views are coming from when you lot start watching it (it was on 70 views when I spotted it). Hopefully he’ll make his way over here and join you all in our Singletrack community, because it seems like he’s one of us in spirit.

OK, soak up those feel good vibes and head back out into the real world now. Maybe take a bike with you – it’ll almost certainly feel like a better place if you do.

I came to Singletrack having decided there must be more to life than meetings. I like all bikes, but especially unusual ones. More than bikes, I like what bikes do. I think that they link people and places; that cycling creates a connection between us and our environment; bikes create communities; deliver freedom; bring joy; and improve fitness. They're environmentally friendly and create friendly environments. I try to write about all these things in the hope that others might discover the joy of bikes too.
