I'm genuinely confused by the movie. There are a lot of "experts" who have great info and taught me a lot about track bikes, racing, and fixed bikes but the scenes that were supposed to be "beautiful" of people racing around in traffic were terrifying to me as a commuter. I can only compare it to a movie where I see an actor riding poorly and ripping the mouth off of his horse and cringe despite the scene being "beautiful" or "important" to the untrained watcher. As an equestrian, that's hard to watch.
