Adventure-Spec Presents MONDO SAHARA & ERZBERG THE HARD WAY

Event information

On Saturday 7th December at the Hebden Bridge Picturehouse, AdventureSpec present an evening of film spanning the whole spectrum of Adventure Motorcycling.

After a sellout premiere in London’s West End, Austin Vince heads north to showcase his epic new film Mondo Sahara! Following Mondo Sahara is the Premiere of Graham Jarvis’ Erzberg the Hard Way movie.

MONDO SAHARA
Austin’s most well known previous works, Mondo Enduro and Terra Circa followed DIY low budget RoundTheWorld motorcycle expeditions. Mondo Sahara follows a much shorter but arguably more ‘intense’ trip from London to the Saharan wilderness of Mauretania, where the team survive on rations and fuel dug out of the desert sands that were buried months before and GPS logged by a 4x4 expedition. The big message throughout the film is that anyone can do it. An inspiring movie that is sure to give a hefty dose of wanderlust to viewers with even an ounce of adventurous blood in their veins.

GRAHAM JARVIS ERZBERG THE HARD WAY
Graham first came to prominence in the 80’s as a featured rider on the mighty ‘Junior Kickstart’. He started riding trials professionally as soon as he left school and had a successful career in the World, European and British Championships. In 2007 Graham started competing in Extreme Enduro events and after switching to Husaberg in 2010 has become THE dominant rider in the sport, but for years the big one, The Redbull Harescramble at Erzberg, eluded him. For 3 consecutive years Graham crossed the finish line first, but was subsequently disqualified. After such disappointment he had to make good in 2013 and went all out to make the perfect race. But, things don’t always go to plan in Extreme Enduro... The movie follows the full build up to the event, plus all stages of this unique dirt bike party in Austria. With narration from enduro nut Ross Noble it’s a unique insider’s view into the world’s toughest race from its greatest rider.!

Both the film’s protagonists will be in attendance and there will be special guests and ‘special features’ making for a one off evening of entertainment Hebden Bridge is a beautiful old mill town with a huge range of interesting shops and cafes. Make of day of it, do some Christmas shopping and sample the excellent restaurants and pubs!

After the films the fun moves over the road to the Crown Inn for drinks and an evening of live music.
