Description
Inspired to Ride follows a handful of cyclists from around the world as they race unsupported in the inaugural year of a 4,233 mile transcontinental race across the USA. This race is the antithesis to events like Tour de France and Race Across America. There will be no teams, no support vehicles, no special jerseys and not a dime in prize money.
The riders will rely solely on their fitness, meticulously chosen gear and mental fortitude to get them to the finish. And to make it even more interesting, they’ll be self-supported – no crew, no follow vehicles and no prize money waiting at the end. These athletes will endure agonizing climbs in the Rockies, driving winds on the Great Plains and sawtooth switchbacks in the Appalachians all for a pat on the back, potential bragging rights and a cold beer when it’s all over. Some are out to make history and set records, while others are simply trying to finish. Four cinematographers, cameras flying in the sky and GoPro’s galore will give the audience an incredibly immersive experience while these cyclists speed along the TransAmerica Trail revealing its varied landscapes, intriguing locals and captivating stories which dot this path of discovery.
A bike valet will be available at the event. For regular updates and information about the local bicycling scene, “like” the Greeley Bike to Work FB page
