Greg (Modine) is a beleaguered social worker at a Colorado juvenile correctional center with a passion for bicycle adventure rides and a revelatory idea for rehabilitation …rounding up an unlikely crew of incarcerated students to complete a transformative 762-mile cycling challenge from Denver to the Grand Canyon. To achieve their goal, the mentor and his teen pedal pushers will battle heat stroke, mountain inclines/speedy descents … and most of all each other to come together as a unified team.
