Crossisover charity film screening - Sven : the final year



To celebrate the end of the 2017/18 Cyclocross season, join Hackney GT  and our good friends Hub Velo for an exclusive screening of Sven Nys: The Final Year. A feature-length film focusing on the final season of cyclo-cross legend, Sven Nys. This is a charity event and we're raising money for Ride For Charlie (https://www.rideforcharlie.com/)

Thursday 1st March 7pm
£6 tickets available from https://www.the-institute-of-light.com/

Sven Nys is a rider who needs no introduction; he is, quite simply, the Eddy Merckx of cyclocross. With two world championship titles, seven World Cup series titles, and over 140 competitive victories, Nys is widely considered one of the greatest cyclocross racers of all time.

The 2015-16 cyclocross season, his last before retirement, is documented with an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look into his training, his racing, his demons, and his relationship with his son, Thibau.

Sven: The Final Year, a film by Jan Vandermotte, is the remarkable story of a living cycling legend at the edge of his prime.
