This film was initially made for a 6 monthly night called "One More Brew", where local creatives with a passion for MTB would come together to show off their work over a keg of beer. This film was then...

    I was moved by this short film. I am currently going through a difficult period in my life; depression and I have just learned that I am bipolar type 2. And ADHD. I often had dark thoughts and no longer had any desires. But without really knowing why, I managed to go cycling, sometimes for 15 minutes or sometimes for 2 hours. Now I know that am not alone! Thank you.

    I've been biking locally for a yr now after not getting on a bike for 15yrs. It helps depression after losing my close sister to alcoholism and losing my nephew suddenly and losing my mom. Lost two dogs in that time had to major surgeries and now my daughter moved away. Not too far away but biking helps me feel connected to something. 😊

    Beautiful, honest, real people facing real hard things and how biking in nature with fellow people helps. I recently had a health scare and this event had an impact on me. Been struggling to put myself back out there on the bike and opening myself up to meet people. My health is good and I’m going to slowly get myself out there again. Thanks for reminding me it’s worth it!

    Beautiful, so well put together and thank you for doing it. I didn't realise, even after 30 years of riding just how much bikes were to me until it got ill, those rides solo and with mates made all the difference and helped me see the brighter and better side of things. I hope others realise that you are not alone, others are there for you and maybe feeling the same way and going for a pedal may just help you see that. RIP Nils and thank you for this.

    Brilliant, Inspirational what a fantastic film. Whilst my problems are small in comparison I do feel that sense of freedom and joy, a resetting of the mind when after a ride. I love it from the first pedal turn to washing and cleaning the bike after knowing I'll be out again soon.

    What a perfectly crafted film. Thanks guys. Thanks to Nils, Sam and Rach for sharing their stories so candidly, and thanks to the creative team for putting it together so beautifully. If ever anyone needs persuading that riding a bike will help them through hardship, this is the film they'll need to watch. ❤

    I'm another one who either changed their life through cycling or cycling changed my life. Twenty-five years ago, my life fell apart through drinking, and a part of that was losing my driver's licence. I bought a bike for transport, but something strange happened. Every time I rode the bike, I would finish the ride feeling euphoric. Tired, but euphoric. Twenty five years later I have a drivers licence back but I still keep riding because it makes me feel good and helps me deal with my problems. BTW: I don't need to drink any more.

      I find that fresh air and exercise helps to clear my head and reset. I cannot afford a car so I have to ride to work and do things. In some ways the more you do something the less resistance your thoughts and mood present to stop you. As the season changes and it is cold and dark and messy, it is difficult to feel motivated and just not do things. And it is only going to get worse...But as I get out there a bit everyday to ride or walk somewhere it becomes easier to do it. I don't know anything about you or your situation but I hope this is helpful.

    I can't say how happy I was to stumble across this video. This speaks volumes to many of us who have turned to cycling as not just a sport, but a grounding mechanism to battle the challenges life throws our way, myself included. I have always found that no matter how difficult things become, getting out and turning the pedals always seems to bring some clarity, even if for a moment, or until the next ride. Thank you Rider Resilience for this touching video. RIP Nils.

    Thank you for this film, beautifully crafted, motivational and inspiring. One I think we all need to see and share as we all have our own problems and issues to deal with throughout our lives, although some of us clearly have awful stories but despite them, we can all take a positive approach to reducing our own ones. Personal I have my own problems to deal with but I can see how this message can help myself but can also help others in my family and from that who knows. Thank you again and Best wishes , Mark
