As Cannes is to film lovers, Joy Ride is to bike lovers.

The Bicycle Film Festivals: Joy Ride, is set to embark on its 9th year of celebration starting on June 18th until the 22nd. Joy Ride is a bicycle-inspired art show that attracts an array of designers from all different artistic genres.

The event features bike sculptures, modified bikes, bike graffiti and pretty much any other artistic angle you can associate with a bike.

Joy Ride will take place at multiple venues throughout New York.
