"Singletrack High", a documentary about a progressive approach to body, mind and character developmentthrough the sport of high school mountain biking premieres tonight in Mill Valley, California. The premiere is at the 142 Throckmorton Theatre, at 8 p.m.
"Singletrack High" follows a diverse group of high school students through the 2012 mountain bike racing season in the NorCal High School Cycling League. Through their experiences, the 61-minute film explores the positive outcomes of keeping kids active on bikes at the age when many trade in two wheels for four.
Singletrack High was produced by Pedal Born Pictures, with the generous support of Specialized Bicycle Components and the National Interscholastic Cycling Association. Additional production support was provided by GoPro and Sunnyvale VW.
The NorCal High School Cycling League, founded in 2001, is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, which serves students from both public and private schools from Monterey to Siskyou Counties. Regardless of ability level, the NorCal League is committed to providing a positive cycling experience for all its student-athletes.
