Bike Fucking Tour 'd Italia

Happy MayDay! This month has a lot of beautiful bikers blooming already and now we have an updated Bike Fucking Tour 'd Italia plan!


We take a ferry from Sicily to Genoa then ride to the northwest of Italian city of Torino (famous for its Shrouds and Fiats). There the famed social center, Gabrio will host our bikesexual projections.
10/05 Torino @ Csoa Gabrio - via Francesco Millio 42 @ 21h

 
After Torino we are heading east to our biggest show of the tour! The reason we said, "Yes! You made a great film and we will return to Europe!" They have arranged for our show to be hosted in the center at the city's most historic squat turned social center turned self-managed public space. Expect a lot, you will get it!
17/05 - 18/05 Milano @ Leoncavallo

mmm... saucy

Leaving all that excitement in our wake our fucking bike ride takes us further into Italy where all your Balsamic vinegar originated
21/05 Modena @Libera - via del Tirassegno 7 @ 21:30


We are hoping we can find contacts in other parts of Italy (eg Florence) on our way back south to the capital of capitals, to where all bike fucking roads lead.
31/05 Roma @TBA

Then it is only another 800 km to Slovenia. That's a lot of pasta. This Bike Fucking Tour d' Italia has a lot of exciting kilometers to pound! Thanks for your encouragement!

count the extra "nipples"

 

bicisessuale d Italiano!

Blast it! We had a great screening in Amsterdam and Zurich and between the excellent history tours and having our handlebar bag stolen on the night train we didn't even make blog posts about them!

Well even if you miss out on info here, the column on the right is usually up to date.

So now would be a good time to look at that calendar and see what dates are coming up and what people you can invite to enjoy sex-positive, human powered entertainment!

Bike Smut in Sicily!

Saturday, April 26

Via Opificio 12, 95131 Catania, Italy

 

Belgium, I hardly even fucked the

Belgium might inspire more confusion that any other European country for people from the United States.

They speak a lot of French although it's not quite France.
They ride a lot of Dutch bikes but it's not quite The Netherlands.
They enjoy a discussion of logic like the Germans but its not quite Germany.
Flemish or phlegmish, they love naked bike rides and they are gonna love Bike Smut!

But as fate had it an upstart, kickass venue of rad, film loving feminists totally said, "Bikes + Porn? YES WE CAN!" We are grateful our friends at Filmhuis Cavia are welcoming us back again.

Back in the Saddle: a European bike tour adventure

We are driven to provide the finest, most ethical, human-powered bicycle pornography on Earth!

This Spring and Summer we will accomplish just that!

Bike Smut is a collection of erotic bicycle shorts made by cyclists, radicals, and queers from all over the world - various interpretations about what is great about sex and cycling!

This year the submissions are from Oakland, Seattle, Florida, Montreal, Berlin, Milan and Geneva! Literally and figuratively all over the map.

We have a pretty ambitious schedule as you can see in our future route. Thousands of kilometers traversed by bicycle!

Bike Smut is a celebration of human-powered transportation and sex-positive culture.The content is completely audience generated.No reproductions or DVD's are available, so you must go to a screening to see them.

Films include of variety of representations of human sexuality,entirely created by amateur bike pornographers from all over the world!

This synthesis of transportation and sexuality is everything you could imagine it to be: creative, ethical, aware, explicit, tantalizing, candid, and silly! Since its inception, Bike Smut has toured North America 15 times, and in the summer of 2011 the project completed its first European excursion, playing 63 shows in 21 countries, from Scotland to Turkey. The winter of 2012 took Bike Smut on their first tour south of the border, featuring six shows around Mexico. The Bike Smut Film Festival is now in its 7th year, and the only way to see it is to attend a screening and experience it with others.

Bike Smut is at its heart, a community driven event. Besides the screenings we often coordinate with local groups to host workshops, skill shares, group rides, races, potlucks, and performances.

Are you ready to feel the strength of a steed between your legs? This film festival made by queers, cyclists and artists is only available in theaters.

Bikes! Sex! Films… in EUROPE!

The first leg of our 2nd European Tour to Geneve, Lausanne, St-Étienne, Grenoble, and Lyon was fabulous! Five shows in Seven days. All of them at capacity!

We expect future more bikesexual filmmakers from Lyon

One of our most surreal films, "Power Up" played to its hometown in Geneva.

A group ride gathers in Lausanne

In fact the French/German media outlet, Tracks ARTE, recut our "What is Bike Smut" trailer to make it Safe For Youtube and it got thousands of hits in the first day!

We are now poised to start out on our second leg of this European tour:  Paris, Brussels, and Amsterdam (and maybe Zurich if they can find a place for us). We have a big mission ahead of us and we need a lot of help!

Share this Safe For Work video clip and help bring bikesexuality to more deserving people!

Or if you are more daring, check out our account on Queer Porn Tube  (the home of empowered pornography) where you can share the uncut version (NSFW, duh)


Thanks for your help!

Bikes Make Everyone Come Together

Happy VD! Not just venereal disease, Valentines Day! And the two have never been so well entwined than with this excellent bit of sexy PSA-ness:



WeComeTogether is an international group working to stop the spread of sexually transmitted diseases thu "prevention, treatment, care and support, including condoms and sex education, to those who need it most"

We think that is fabulous. There is a sentiment that STDs (now called STIs cause some infections are not diseases but really STDs sounds so much better and also almost spells STUD) are somehow not a problem anymore. The idea is if you get AIDS you can just go on incredibly expensive drugs for the rest of your life.
This line of thinking is dangerous enough that you might want to take a look at what wikipedia shows is one of the possible consequences of getting AIDS enhanced scabies. Fuck that hurts the eyeballs!

We are totally sex-positive so of course we love the video.  However an article from Rob Williams of The Independent quotes the rather overconfident Jo Hodges of London College of Communication. who describes it as "an open celebration of the joys of safer sex that targets people of all different ages, sexual orientations/preferences and genders."

All? Dubious, but lets count the ways

They got food, furry, age, gender-play, feather, leather, BDSM dogging (public sex outdoors),  and even CAR PORN!?!?

We congratulate the filmmakers for creating something that quickly shows a great swath of sexual representation, no matter the ignorance of some British experts.

At first we were mighty slighted by ignoring the quickly growing bikeseuxal segment of our population. But upon further contemplation, it is actually a compliment. We Come Together's mission is to bring sexual awareness to people who need it most, thus they must consider bikesexuals to already be ahead of the sex-positive curve for safe behavior. Frankly we agree. People who use their bodies for transportation may be more likely to be aware of the dangers of exposing their skin. Take for example our recent photo submission from Australia.

 We take serious pride in that compliment. Moreover we encourage you to engage a cyclist with some full face protection!

Coming soon: info about our shows in Europe and our theme for Bike Smut 8!
