Director(s):

Every July, a small group of bikepackers lines up for the backcountry race of a lifetime. This is a film about the Colorado Trail and the people who choose to race it non-stop and self-supported on mountain bikes. The Colorado Trail Race is a 530-mile ultra-endurance bikepacking race along the Colorado Trail, which stretches from Denver to the small town of Durango in Southwest Colorado. The route is primarily singletrack, crossing eight mountain ranges and reaching elevations above 13,000 feet. With no outside support allowed, racers must face the trail and the elements completely on their own, and can take anywhere from 4 days to 2 weeks to traverse the length of the Colorado Trail.
