When it comes down to it, mountain biking is a solo sport.
It’s about being out there, wherever “there” may be. The bike’s whir harmonizing with the wind in your ears. Forgetting your breath. Everything heightened, sharper, realer. Too focused to be nervous: mute screams of bliss, alive as the world around you.
This is what filmmaker Liam Mullany tries to capture, leaving off unnecessarily abrasive music and flashy cuts, letting Bas van Steenbergen’s unnerving intensity speak for itself.
This will make you want to shred. Now.
