Boscombe has the lowest car ownership in Bournemouth so there are lots of avid cyclists in the area. Though still fairly short on official cycle lanes it doesn't take long to find good cycle routes around the town. If you need a cycle map see the Boscombe travel section or call 451451 for a hard copy.
The film features lots of happy cyclists from the Netherlands, Denmark and Colombia, and shows how creating a bicycle-friendly city is the civilised thing to do.
Scripted by Enrique Peñalosa, former mayor of Bogotá and the poster-child for city-wide bicycle advocacy, the movie was produced by the Netherlands-based Interface for Cycling Expertise (I-CE).
It was made in 2004 and received a financial contribution from the Dutch Directorate General for International Cooperation (DGIS). Shimano sponsored the CD distribution of the movie. These CDs are handed out at global cycle campaigning events.
