So work with me, not just sacrilege here but....

Two female friends in their thirties who have been mountain biking want to go and see a showing/ screening with us as a family ....neither was into mountain biking in the day and if they are bored they will moan like billy oh.....

So do I dissuade or just go and bear it.....

i watched it on amazon prime thought it was good to see how it all started especially as it starts off by riding very close to where i live and work

i need to get round to watching Wont Back Down now with Steve Peat

It's worth it to see some of the bikes and clothing 😆

Haven't been tempted myself yet, I'm not really into nostalgia - I enjoyed rather than loved the Peaty film, and even though I own it, I've not been tempted with a second view.

I thought it was pretty good.

Did I miss Guy Martin in it though? He seemed to be in the trailers but I don't remember seeing him in the final film.

I enjoyed it but then again I did start riding in the very early '90s so it was a nostalgia trip.
I can see that if you started much later once you got past laughing at the stupid bikes & clothes it may seem a little dull compared to the latest sick edits.
Won't Back Down gave me a lump in my throat at times for similar reasons.
