“Award winning film about a 64 year old's 540 mile bikepacking journey across the Colorado Trail. I hope this doc inspires you to get outside and experience God's creation. It is one of His many gifts to humanity.
Production Background: This documentary took 21 days to shoot, months to edit, and took up nearly 2 terabytes of footage and files. Filming came with many challenges such as long tiring shoot days, late nights, bike crashes, close calls with search and rescue, water shortages, and sore legs. But every bit was worth it in the end.” -Davis Yates on riding & filming his Colorado Trail ride.

Tidbits
Watchless Running: In a world of Strava, Garmin Connect, GPS watches, Apple watches, Oura rings - to be fully unplugged from technology is nearing the impossible mark, not just in endurance sports, but daily life in general. This runner decided to go 30 days without technology on their daily runs.
✅Jelly Roll’s (newest) Club: Jelly Roll is a popular rap artist/songwriter - he has had to overcome a lot to get where he is - and never had anything handed to him. Now, he’s tackling his newest challenge; running a 5K. You can join his official run club - “Jelly Roll’s Losers Run Club” HERE.
✅Winter Triathlon Champs: One of the perks of being a triathlete is typically, you’re only traveling and racing in places that basically have beach weather. We want to know who created the Winter Triathlon - and when you find them, we’d like to have a word about this nonsense event.
✅Hell have no fury like a woman scorned: In the words of T.Swift -”I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.” Lauren Ryan bags a 3000M PR after her idiot boyfriend dumped her, by text, on Valentine’s Day. If that happened to us - you’d find us at the bottom of a Ben & Jerry’s pint.
✅Tried & True: This little number was worn the entire time by Claire Dumont to hike the Appalachian Trail - we’ve had Shein dresses that fell apart after 15 minutes. If that’s not a testament for the durability and quality construction of Hikerkind apparel - we don’t know what is. Buy your own little yellow dress HERE.
