National Interscholastic Cycling Association (NICA) will screen “Singletrack High” at your local REI. Pedal Born Picture’s new documentary chronicles the high school cycling movement. This inspiring flick follows six student-athletes through the 2012 season in NICA’s NorCal High School Cycling League. The filmmakers documented the positive impacts of keeping kids active on bikes at the age when many trade in two wheels for four. Come witness the transformative power of cycling! A suggested donation of $10 will directly benefit National Interscholastic Cycling Association.
Q&A afterward with Producer and Co-director Jacob Seigel-Boettner.
