Question Must Have DVD’s
[FONT=Arial]Ok, there have been a few threads about, is ROAM good, is The Collective good, etc... But, what would you consider “must haves” for your cycling DVD collection?[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial]I guess I’m asking because I’ll be off the bike, mountain bike anyway, for about 6 more weeks with a broken collar bone. So, I want to add to my collection. May as well be a couch jockey! [/FONT]

[FONT=Arial]Tops of my list, and DVD's I already have are (in no particular order):[/FONT]
  • [FONT=Arial]ROAM[/FONT]
  • [FONT=Arial]The Collective[/FONT]
  • [FONT=Arial]Kranked 6[/FONT]
  • [FONT=Arial]Red Bull Rampage Retrospective[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial]What do I need to add?[/FONT]

The entire Earthed series by Alex Rankin and all of Clay Porter's films (start with Between the Tape). Earthed is available in a box set now (http://www.dirtmag.co.uk)

You can thank me later. Happy viewing.

In my opinion, Roam and The Collective are (WITHOUT A DOUBT) the two greatest mountain bike videos ever made!

Earthed...... NWD...... Kranked Series- also very good!

Mike- How would you compare Hypnosis to the Earthed Series?

I agree with the Earthed series, as well as Hypnosis and Between the tape.

Another favorite is Drift III. In particular I like the "Raw Footage" section in the special features. It's nice watching the racers without annoying music sometimes.

Yeah, that's a good part of that film. Interesting way they put those cameras on the riders' hemlets, but FACING the riders' heads.

Off Road to Athens and 24-Solo.

I'm sick of all the videos with people flinging themselves off of stuff. Once you've seen one, you've seen them all.
