Bicycle Dreams is the powerful true story of the Race Across America, a 3000-mile bicycle race that challenges riders to cross the country in just ten days. They must overcome searing desert heat, agonizing mountain climbs, and endless stretches of open road, all while battling extreme exhaustion and sleep deprivation. But what begins as the adventure of a lifetime is transformed in an instant when tragedy strikes the race. These voyagers discover what is truly at stake as they pedal on, praying for the deliverance only the finish line can bring. By journey's end, some are saved, others are lost, but all learn that the fuel that takes a soul toward its own true destiny is desire.

"Bicycle Dreams is a beautiful film that probes deeply into the sport's heart of darkness, offering an inspiring glimpse at the high price of glory." --USA Today

"Winner of eleven film festival awards, Bicycle Dreams is a truly gripping film, with more drama in 8 days than an entire Tour De France. Bicycle Dreams is riveting, possibly because it's less about bikes and more about people. It's a fierce human drama with bikes simply and literally being the vehicles for hope, pain, disillusionment, despair, happiness, effort, and as the title suggests, dreams. It's an impressive, inspirational film." --CinemaTalk

"A spectacular and heartfelt film that offers a riveting portrait of extreme courage in the face of inhuman obstacles. Bicycle Dreams is an artistic triumph that renewed my belief in the power of desire and the strength of the human will." --David McElroy, The Love of Movies

Contador Stoically Takes Two! Although media speculation prior to the 2009 Tour de France, obsessively focused on the return of Lance Armstrong and his attempt to win another Tour at the age of 37, and if Lance could get around the conflict with Alberto Contador, his teammate and 2007 winner, but cold reality trumped fanciful pre-race narratives. The Spaniard, a decade younger and clearly stronger as the race progressed, steered clear of the press pool and stoically showed his superiority. Not to minimize the enormity of Armstrong s impressive performance after a three year layoff, finishing third in the Tour de France would be any lesser rider s idea of a spectacular achievement. Armstrong showed that he still has the right stuff. Just not quite as much as Contador has. But there was so much more drama and many more accomplishments in this terrific Tour! The Schleck brothers, Andy and Frank, kept Contador and Armstrong in a state of anxiety throughout the 22 stages. Andy earned a place on the podium finishing second; Frank was not far behind in earning fifth place. And the Brits shone as never before. Mark Cavendish powered his way into the sprinters Hall of Fame with six stunning stage wins (topping his four in 08), and Bradley Wiggins showed that pre-race speculation that this might be his year weren t that far off. Finishing fourth, he modestly observed, It s no mean feat finishing behind the three guys on the podium. And I don t mind admitting that they are much better bike riders than I am. The 2009 Tour proved to be a three-week drama with one exciting stage after another. You can experience one of the best Tours ever in this thrilling WCP DVD! Commentary by Phil Liggett & Paul Sherwen. Special 13+ Hr Collector s Edition DVD!
