Off road to Athens

I got this movie a few days ago and I finished watching last night.I thought it was very well put together.For those who don't know its a documentry film that followed the US Olympic hopefulls for 2004.They really stayed away from putting the movies' focus on one particular team,or rider.They really went deep into the hearts of the riders and showed their real emotions.There's alot of lows in the movie with plenty of tears.The riders interviews in the special features was real interesting.Especially the one on Filip Meirhaeghe.I'm so glad that guy got caught.He was so full of himself.All he cared about was winning,if he wasn't winning he wasn't happy.He had the wrong attitude.The American comments on the matter were really good and spoke for alot of cyclists.JHK said he likes racing in America better because there is alot of riders cheating in the World Cups.Its totally unfair.Anyway,I'm proud of our American riders because of their genuiness for the sport.Everyone of them showed humble sportsmanship toward each other.Its a very inspirational story.It makes for some great discussions.There is so much more to this movie so get your own copy!(or invite me over for a movie night) Click on the title for a link to the trailer and the place to buy the dvd.Its a must for cyclists
