Bikes Tell Stories
Passion. Endurance. Change. Fear. Rebirth. Dreams. All these motives are intertwined through six life stories filmed in six countries in Europe. Even though all different the heroes of the documentary are interconnected with cycling as a way of life. It represents a common thread that sparked and touched the points of life that they have never dreamt about achieving it. The heroes also tell a story about how time for bravery is when you’re scared of something. That’s how obstacles are broken. That the loss is real if we make it so. That dreams are in our hands. A change is the highlight motive that also connects all six stories, which illustrate cycling as a medium for self-knowledgement, therapy for the mind and body, something that inspires and motivates. This is a story about adventure, about two wheels and about life. It’s about all of us.
