Do you love shooting on film? 35mm, medium format, miniature, instant, you name it. This ride is to celebrate this once thought dead format. Dust off your old Canonet QL17 G-III, pump up the tires on your Bridgestone XO-2, and come along with us for a 10 to 15-ish mile cruise. We'll stop by several spots good for documenting on film, with a mix of natural and human-created landscapes. This is a casually paced ride with many stops, no one left behind . We start at a park in inner SE. Ride not a loop. The idea of the ride is to head first south, then west, then north, ultimately ending up downtown. There will be a pause mid-ride for snacks and libations. All types of bikes welcome. All types of film cameras welcome. It is OK to shoot digital in addition to film, but please concentrate on film if you can. Also: it is perfectly OK to bring film/camera related things to share, trade, etc. In fact, it's ENCOURAGED! I'll be bringing some stuff I want to give away. And you can become a member of the Bikes and Film Cameras Club for the special ride-only price of $15. Don't worry, you don't have to be a member to ride.
