Don't Look Back - The Rhino Run Story

The Rhino Run is a 2750km self-supported bikepacking race. It starts in Plettenberg Bay, South Africa, and finishes in Windhoek, Namibia.
There are no aid stations, route markings, backup vehicles, or support. Riders must complete the route via GPS tracking and may only get aid at the various shops and towns along the route.
The route traverses through some of the harshest landscapes in South Africa like the Cederberg and the Tankwa Karoo, once the riders hit Namibia they will traverse through the Namib Desert and along the D707 which is dubbed "Namibia's Dream Road".
“Don’t Look Back” follows the story of some of the riders from the inaugural Rhino Run.
It is a story of grit, perseverance, and the resolve to never give up. The 2022 edition featured one of the most celebrated fields ever at an ultra-distance event of this nature. Would the newcomers have what it takes to challenge the established veterans?

One if the best films I ever have seen in RUclips. I have tears in my eyes. Wow.

[@bennyraskin]

Screw in the sand is a hell of an analogy for this race. Wonderful documentary. Captivating. Compelling. Borderline maddening. Well done.

Amazing. At 53 I'm slowly advancing to ultra. Not there yet, but the Idea sticks 😊

[@omare_biketonature]

What an amazing film! Such an epic ride, congratulations to all who made it to the finish line! Loved to see Florence made it!

[@chrisellison-uk8741]

A fantastic film and huge respect to the organisers who make this race happen. It embodies everything that is good about bikepacking and against those people who try and make profits out of what is a grass root sport. Keep it free.

[@martinevanloon2695]

Wow - great to see it from another perspective after watching the dots. The race between the two at the front was nail biting at the time. Benky has nothing to be ashamed of by coming second. It almost doesn’t matter - they both rode an amazing race.

[@Glider34]

Just wish it was a longer documentary.

And she was heavy set, on a junky bike and just did it.
