The 2026 treasure chest of films includes: – a dazzling mountain bike ride exploring the breathtaking landscapes of Norway\, embracing the magic of the midnight sun – a life-changing experience for two adventurous women as they embark to cycle to all the ski-fields in New Zealand in one gigantic attempt – an inspiring film that captures the wettest\, most miserable riding conditions imaginable – a film that playfully delves into the world of those taking cycling to new heights – celebrating fun\, silliness\, and creativity that comes with pushing boundaries on two wheels – a compelling story about perseverance\, showcasing the challenges and triumphs of navigating daily life following a life-altering injury\, and how adaptive design has transformed and enriched the journey forward – a moving movie that follows a father and son’s journey as they take on one of life’s most meaningful milestones- riding a bike together as a family – a bold and uplifting story of an adventure activist\, attempting to break the 24-hour Guinness World Record in downhill mountain biking- all to raise funds for reforesting foothills around Queenstown\, New Zealand. Her relentless pursuit not only pushes the limits of endurance but also becomes a powerful symbol of resilience and environmental commitment – and crowning the night off- we all love an underdog tale. This charming\, funny\, heartfelt film inspires us to believe that we all have the capacity to be unlikely heroes in our own stories. The audience is transported back to the nostalgic 1990’s\, to the slopes of the punishing Mont Ventoux\, in Southern France\, to witness the drama of a battle between two giants ALL in the mix! These short films are a great reminder of why we love to ride our bike; with stories that captivate us\, stories that move us\, and most importantly of all – inspiring us to get out and ride.
