Excellent film. I bought it on a whim after seeing the trailer, not really expecting it to be such a great piece. After I started it, I at first I thought it plunged in too fast with too little introduction to the ride and the race, but as it played out, I saw that the characters had the space to develop during the ride. There was a real connection, and I found myself really rooting for the characters. Have I any criticism? No, none that I can really think of. It was weighted about right for me. It was paced beautifully. There was No forced narrative, no melodrama, just people in the landscape, doing their best. What all the best stories are about. Of course, I'm a cyclist, so I might be a touch biased, but I think even if you're not a cyclist, the scenery is breathtaking, and the human stories so engaging it will keep you with them all the way.
