Bike Tahoe, a nonprofit bicycle advocate, announces the launch of the 2025 Bike Tahoe Film Fest for amateur filmmakers to celebrate the spirit of biking through video. The festival invites riders, families and outdoor enthusiasts to capture and share their Tahoe biking adventures in short, 60-second videos.
“The Film Fest is about sharing the magic of biking–the adrenaline, beauty and the community connections that make riding here special,” says Ty Polastri, of Bike Tahoe, in a press release. “The Film Fest is open to everyone, whether you’re filming a flow trail with your action camera or using a phone to capture your kids learning to ride a bike. This is about creativity and celebrating the joy of biking together in Tahoe.”
Filmmakers can choose among five categories: Bike Park, Family Affair, Next Gen, Awe-Inspiring Beauty, and Extreme Adventure. Each video is 60 seconds or less, non-commercial, and have original or copyright-free music.
Finalists will have their videos broadcast on Outside/Lake Tahoe TV and displayed on social
media platforms, websites and YouTube channels of Outside and Bike Tahoe. They will
also receive trophies in their respective categories.
Participants can learn about the Film Fest details and submit their video at biketahoe.org. Submissions are open until October 15, 2025.
