  • Meet Ghana’s most talented street stunt bikers. They take us on a ride, showing off their daredevil exploits, explaining what motivates them and enables them to take such risks. Their skill is second to none - making them the best riders in Africa, if not the world. The film is fundamentally about how bikes unite and bring people together and the freedom of the road.

    As a Ghanaian currently resides in CA, I want to thank Vice for not portraying the terrible negative western media always portrays Africans and Africa as w whole. Thank you for showing the world the right thing, the warm people of Ghana, culture, lifestyle, and NOT 'oh look at how poor they are'. Ghana is a beautiful country, one of the MOST PEACEFUL even more so than MOST 1st world countries. We've never been to war, haven't had to fight anyone after fighting the British to gain independence, we certainly have never dropped bombs on anyone and never will.
    Thank you for portraying a positive image.
