June 20th Return to Earth Mountain Bike Film Premiere to Benefit the Burlington Bike Park Coalition and Fellowship of the Wheel

The Burlington Bike Park Coalition, Fellowship of the Wheel, and Outdoor Gear Exchange proudly present a premiere screening of Return to Earth—the new feature-length mountain bike movie from Anthill Films, the foremost creators of mountain bike cinematography.

The film will showcase cutting-edge mountain biking—from bikepacking to slopestyle and freeride—with some of the world's most talented riders, including Brett Rheeder, Ryan Howard, Casey Brown, Brandon Semenuk, Tahnee Seagrave and Joey Schusler. Return to Earth was filmed all over the world: You'll be treated to shots of gobsmacking landscapes in near- and far-flung locations like British Columbia, Switzerland, Quebec, Wales, Utah, Colorado, and Hawaii.

There will also be a chance to win awesome raffle prizes, including a MIPS bike helmet and Premium Bike Tune from Outdoor Gear Exchange, a Burton backpack, and a gift certificate to Sugarbush Resort. Libations and light snacks will be served.

Where: Outdoor Gear Exchange in Burlington
When: Thursday, June 20th, doors open at 8:30 PM
How much: Tickets are $10. Snacks, drinks, and raffle by donation!

All proceeds will benefit the Burlington Bike Park Coalition's goal of building a bike skills park in the city of Burlington, and the Fellowship of the Wheel's mission of providing mountain bike and multi-use trails for everyone in Chittenden County.
