Project Pedal is an independent documentary about the shift in perspective after traveling alone, for thousands of miles, by bicycle from the Pacific coast to the Atlantic ocean. Sharing people's motivations to leave everything behind, and to understand what they each take away from their overwhelming and painful journey.
We are in our 6th year of production - and along every step of the way we have fought hard to push our no-budget film towards ambitious goals. After 4 years of pre-production and fund-raising, we spent the summer of 2007 filming a young man on his 4,000 miles coast to coast bicycle ride. It was an experience that changed all of our lives.
But still have much work left to do. Post-production is another long, exhausting road for us - and we need all the help we can get to see us through to the end.
Help keep our film independent and on schedule! Each dollar goes towards creating something that we hope will be beautiful and inspiring to audiences - and you'll be a part of it.
