Bike Week: Classic Film Screening for Adults

May 14 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

To celebrate the art of biking for Bike Week, Leixlip Library will be screening The Flying Scotsman.

Graeme Obree, a bike shop owner facing financial difficulties, embarks on a remarkable quest for glory in the world of competitive cycling. Driven by a fierce determination and supported by his family, he designs and builds his own unique bicycle, nicknamed “Old Faithful.” His journey is a compelling blend of personal triumph and perseverance, as he battles mental health challenges and strives to overcome significant obstacles to achieve his dream of cycling success.

Whether you’re a regular cyclist, thinking of getting back on the bike, or just enjoy a good story, this screening is a great way to mark Bike Week and be inspired.

Booking not required, drop-in.
