So I’m not sure how I’ve been doing this online cycling coverage for so long and never heard of The Bicyclists until last week. It is an online TV series featuring a wholesome Midwestern boy who moves to Portland to discover his inner cyclist. Or something. The series of five minute episodes give us some pretty hilarious examples of all the cycling community archetypes as well as our main character, Conrad, attempting and failing to be a hipster poser (or are those terms interchangeable?)
Anyway, take some time to enjoy the whole series on The Bicyclists website. Here’s the first episode.
There is also a feature film version that just premiered in Portland last week. The trailer makes the story seem a little more melodramatic and less funny than the web series, but hopefully we’ll get to see it here in Austin soon.
