Beautiful. The film makes me want to find the crits in my area and go watch and support the racers.
Well done Angus and team - beautiful cinematography and storyline. Gritty bike racing in the US. Certainly for the love of sport and not money.
I am VERY curious what is in that NDA....
Man what a great opening scene. There are so many great cycling mini documentaries out right now. Hats off to all the amazing story tellers and cinematographers. Angus killed it here!!! Beautiful
Can’t say enough
I think this is Angus’ best cinematography
Angus's
legion fucking sucks sometimes
Danny looks like brad pitt on a bike with the helmet and glasses. Wild lol 3:22
'Hey Kid' by Olive James is the song played during the final race in case anybody is interested. Took me a minute to find it so might as well share
Absolutely brilliant. Great story and beautifully shot. Also, fuck L39ion
This was great, both story presentation and video. I was waiting for one like this since "The Hard Road".
Wow what an amazing story. I did Superweek (now TOAD) 4 summers and yes it was the most memorable time of my life. I loved the people, the racing, the mid west thunder storms, same host family, and the experience. My parents drove from NE to WI to watch me race and I remember my dad (not very close) was amazed to to see it all. Awe the memories in sleeping in a basement and watching the tour (we don't have basements in LA).
That opening shot is so good! I had to pause the video to comment.
Angus once again surpasses himself as not only a great filmmaker, but also as someone being able to capture and convey human emotion in the most poetic way. With this film (and all the other thereabouts films) Angus establishes himself at the best cycling related director. Good metaphors, good music, good images, thanks a lot Angus and team.
Beautifully made look into the humble, human scene that is US crit racing. Thank you. Would love to see a doc at this level on Latino racers that feature heavily in North American bicycle racing. So many powerful stories there yet to be told.
Beautiful film, where can we get the soundtrack list
Massive thanks to everyone involved in this beautiful film 👏👌👍💪
Your filming and ability to story tell through the characters you bring to life makes me watch and appreciate things I never would have normally watched! I'm a cyclist and have never understood the whole 'crit thing' but I get it now. Thank you!
Such a great watch congrats to the team and Danny loved it! Big ups from Radelaide Australia.
Awesome story, Angus this video is a work of art. Video reminds me of racing crits as a junior. Looking forward to the next one.
The ref is a douche and just tried to save ego
Great film! Brings me back to racing with Thomas in Wisconsin as juniors. He is still living the dream. Congrats on your continued success!!
such a good production, well done team!
Man, I really enjoyed this film. Thank you.
Well done, Angus!
Angus, I've watched all of your films - starting with your brother in Ausie land. You are truly gifted at sharing the passion, the story and the life of a cyclist. Every single flick I feel inspired, entertained and just happier. Thank you so much for this one. Please continue. Cheerrs.
Great job Angus. I lived the US Crit life in the early 90s and this captures the spirit for sure.
Awesome. Thank you so much for the show.
Cheering for you this season Danny. Give em hell
Great movie mate, hats off to you and the team for sharing their experiences
Beautiful production. Gives us all a glimmer of hope for US road racing.
Such a great film wow
dig it
Brilliant, thanks for making this ❤
What an awesome documentary!
Free Sam Wiley Smith.
This needs more visibility. Did him dirty
Jaime consistent af 🔥
Great stuff. TY
This doesn't seem like a video to get young people interested in the sport. I still liked it, but I'm old
USA cycling officiating has been the worst since the inception. My father went through this garbage back in the 50s and 60s and myself until 4years ago when I retired.
Incredible
Beautiful Film. Hats off to Angus and team 👏
Crackin job Angus.
beautiful film
Read about this in Roleur. Good watch.
Another fabulous film ❤🏁
35:35 classic referee conversation!!
🔥 🔥
@35:30 yeah, judges/referees hate accountability. We should press to make them accountable. The rule of not changing a decision is an ego rule more than anything else. Bad/un fair judging = bad competition. No way around it.
Good watch
let the weekend begin!
Amazing cinematography and storytelling…but legion always a legion of hypocrites!
Legion is sooooooooooooo WEAK and DIRTY!!!!!
crit racing is like nascar, it lacks in many areas, this is because no one wants to see a long ass race with a bunch of climbing so they shorten it and its just some laps with a sprint, where only the sprinters shine. the best world tour climber or gc guy wouldnt stand a chance and yet theyre the known to be the best cyclists in the world, in these crit races they would be nothing because they wouldnt be able to show case their amazing talents. its a shame the sport will never blow up in america. but at least we have gravel now.
These guys would get smoked in a real bike race
Very disingenuous comment. What defines a real bike race Adam? A UCI World Tour race? Couldn’t be more polar opposite but nobody is comparing the two. This is still the highest level of road racing in the country worthy of examining and they are certainly “real” bike races.
