Yeap just watched it prop jealous of that trip. Loved the fact that they filmed bike packing and just full out riding. Oh and those yeti's where prop pimp I'm a big fan of the yeti bike

It has confirmed to me that I need to go ride there because for years I have thought that Georgia would be a great place to explore on a mtb and has been high on my "to do" list and is even higher now..

Great film, they looked to be travelling really light though.

Thats a great film, also, some of the others he has done have been good too (if memory serves me well

)

The EVA Air flight path from Taiwan to London goes over that area. Stunning.. I've spent hours on end just looking out of the plane window, with loose thoughts of riding home from a factory trip one day.

Nice film ..... but where can I buy some of that 'vanishing luggage' they were using when things got rad?

That was my only negative thought about the film. Personally I'd have liked it better if looked a bit more natural by leaving the luggage in place.

Lovely film otherwise.

Looks a truly stunning place too.

It could do without that crappy existential narrative at the end too.

Mid march. Not even a fat bike would be any use. Skins and skies.
