I was talking with someone last night about how we often fail to document our own history as it’s being made.  We’re too caught up in planning for the future and getting through the present.

Recently I’ve spent time researching the Detroit Wheelmen and it’s simply fascinating to compare them with Detroit bicyclists today.

But another great story is the Wolverine Sports Club.  And fortunately a new documentary Catch the Wind has been created that captures their highlights through the years, but especially those under Mike Walden. The movie contains great photos and videos from around Detroit, including Belle Isle and the Dorais Velodrome.

Catch the Wind premiered last Sunday, but it’s being shown again this Sunday, November 2nd, 6:30PM at  Royal Oak’s Main Art Theater.
