Blending animation with documentary footage, Two Wheels Good celebrates the role the bicycle once played in rural Ireland. Four people whose livelihood depended on bicycles talk about how they learnt to cycle, the fitness it required, and their cycling tours of the country during which they lived ‘like hobos’. Creatively assembled, Two Wheels Good lovingly records an era before cars, when the bicycle crossbar was the preferred method of transport for courting couples.
