Driven by anti-materialism and a belief that the impending apocalypse will render cars useless and leave bicycles in power, Black Label Bike Club (BLBC) battles mainstream consumer culture and rival gangs for its vision of a better tomorrow.

Pulling threads from Critical Mass and the wider bike counterculture, B.I.K.E. explores such themes as radical politics, personal artistic vision, global responsibility, relationships, group formation, and perhaps most prominently, pain and love.

Co-directors Jacob Septimus and Anthony Howard followed the Brooklyn chapter of BLBC for over two years to meetings, parties, jousts, gatherings of the tribes in Amsterdam and Minneapolis, and the protests of the 2004 Republican National Convention to create their masterpiece.

This fascinating and gorgeously gritty film provides insight into a passionate subculture, and exposes the darker aspects of living on the wild side. Edited from over 385 hours of footage spanning two years, Fountainhead Films presents B.I.K.E.: a riveting look into the ways in which identity is important for a collective of fiercely independent people

Screenings and Institutional Sale of B.I.K.E. are available through Evil Twin Booking.

  • @jorgejr885 s n a g f i l m s . c o m or you can get the dvd from netflix

  • Nothing original. It´s a mix of a bunch of hippies and jack ass fans...

  • hipsters on bikes. yawn.

  • they throw good parties, and I have a few friends who are in it, but as far as the collective whatever based opinion of their club goes I wouldn't pay pocket change to hear them talk.

  • Does anyone know where I can watch the full movie. Please let me know.

  • Is there an L.A. Chapter ? I just want to ride with ANYBODY ! And my bike is a piece of shit HUFFY Mountain Bike...for some reason, I don't think these guys would be judgemental or snooty about it ! Get back at me !!!!

  • Also, for arguments sake, BLBC is over run by dirty attention whores, but at its core, it was started by folks who simply enjoy riding bikes. Pointless, I guess, but so is liking Desperate Housewives, or whatever the fuck it is that "you people" do.

  • Haters are cute. I'm not a member of BLBC, nor will I ever be, but to say it's the most pointless documentary ever made, is, well, pointless. You people don't get all worked up over David Attenborough docs about birds of paradise fucking, so why does this piss you off so much? Sure, many members of black label are snooty, clique-ish fuck up drug addicts. There are members of the "club" who aren't.

    My son is neither ignorant, nor a dropout. He does not have a chip on his shoulder, nor is he desperate to fit in. I feel stronger when I'm around him, that's the sign of a tough guy. I couldn't be prouder of my son, Doyle. I'm not sure who raised you to speak up and babble nonsense when you don't know what you are talking about or who taught you to toss off random sarcastic criticism to someone's mom, but I'm guessing it wasn't YOUR mother... who still loves you, son.

  • Sounds awesome. Search Bike Heist teaser
