More advanced procedures can be covered on request. Participants are encouraged to bring their own bikes.

Bike Temple wants to give a big thanks to everyone who showed up and participated in the Megabad Movie night. Local snacks and local brews were devoured by all participants as they wandered the halls of the Academy. The Megabad Movie was exactly just that really bad and hilarious, featuring commentary by some of the Academy’s scientist. Bike Temple hopes to participate in this event again and will let post about it in the future to the website.

Bike Temple presents Megabad Movie Night at the Academy of Natural Science!

Join us at the Academy after hours to watch some awesomely awful movies. The Academy's own experts will be onstage to provide ongoing commentary on scientific absurdities and generally poor filming, think Mystery Science Theater 3000!

Enjoy light snacks, drinks, and exploring the museum before the feature film begins. Then sit back, relax, laugh, and cringe as we watch an "awesomely awful" flick. You must be 18+ years of age to attend these events (and 21+ to drink).
