You know how they say 'you hurt the ones you love'? It works the same
with bikes. I don't all think bikers are *necessarily* masochists,
although what do you call people who push their bodies for 18 hours at
a time for fun?

This video is not about strenuous exercise, but it is about putting
ourselves in an uncomfortable position and receiving an unexpected
benefit.

You ask, "what are these videos all about?" RevPhil clarifies, "I see the videos a way to promote the bike porn film fest and the notion cycling as sexy".

PORTLAND, Ore. - A special valentines day surprise from CrankMyChain! CycleTV, Reverend Phil, and some of the riders of the Midnight Mystery Ride.

We asked bikers on this past Friday's MMR about their bike sexual
experiences. Here is the first steamy video which promotes the Bike Porn II "BikeXploitation" film festival. Find out more at www.BikeSmut.com.

We plan to release one such movie every week until the long awaited
premiere of Bike Porn II this June.

People who loved last year's Pornography of the Bicycle will have
their opportunity to get dirty on the big screen at the Clinton Street
Theater June 13th. Behold, the official call for submissions for the
new bike porn theme:

Artists interested in submitting to Bike Porn II: BIKEXPLOITATION shall
* send an email to revphil@gmail.com
* use mini-DV tape or better
* shoot in 9x16 aspect ratio
* make it 7 minuets or less
* copyright-free music is better
* submit by April 15th, 2008

9 months have passed since The Pornography of the Bicycle premiered at
the Clinton Street Theater as part of Pedalpaloosa and the Portland
Underground Film Festival. That night over 500 sexy bikers lined up to
witness the series of short videos on the theme "bike porn". Since
then the program has played shows in Seattle, Bellingham, Vancouver
BC, Los Angeles, Davis, San Francisco, and Cottage Grove, Oregon.

In March The Pornography of the Bicycle will go on an eastern swing
including Chicago, Columbus, New York, Washington DC and Richmond
Virginia. Supporters are encouraged to contact friends and consulting
