Film Reviews
VeloNews: Race Across America, Stephen Auerbach's first cycling film is an inspiration to anyone who believes that cycling is a form of religion.
USA Today: 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.
The Veloist: I highly recommend you get a copy of Race Across America and place it within easy reach of your indoor trainer. It belongs in your video library to be pulled out whenever you need a healthy dose of inspiration.
Fat Cyclist: Bicycle Dreams is a movie you absolutely must see. You'll be asking yourself some serious questions about life afterward.
Cycling Review: Bicycle Dreams isn't for those who want to shy away from the tragic side of the human experience, unwilling to risk the cracking of their shell of denial. This film captures the human condition like few other films as it moves us to break through the barrier of the fear of death.
Road CC: Race Across America is a truly gripping film, with more drama in 8 days than an entire Tour De France. It's riveting because it's less about bikes and more about people, with bicycles simply and literally being the vehicles for hope, pain, disillusionment, despair, happiness, and as the title suggests, dreams.
Podium Café: Bicycle Dreams is the ultimate inner journey. If you thought the life of a cyclist was an internal struggle, wait until you see what Auerbach unearths in this film. Bicycle Dreams is an unprecedented exploration of the subject of the suffering on the bike.
About.com: As we fall deeper and deeper into Bicycle Dreams, what we witness grows more terrifying, yet more compelling. Auerbach's masterful direction exposes the raw lessons that drive people to push beyond the limits of human endurance.
Bicycle Touring Pro: If you've ever dreamed of challenging yourself to a place far beyond what you previously thought was possible, Bicycle Dreams is a film you must see. It's beautiful, thought provoking, exciting, emotional and scary. The experience of watching this film will leave you with a new perspective on life that will remain with you for a very long time to come.For help with your order, or to purchase more than 5 DVDs,
