“I Just Want To Ride” is live on PEARL iZUMi’s YouTube channel. The film is 38 minutes chronicling my 2019 ride on the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route. Film by Rugile Kaladyte. Music by James Wilcox. Here’s an interview with Rue about the film. A huge thanks to PEARL iZUMi, Revelate Designs, Wahoo and Ergon for funding this project and believing in us. We’re thrilled to get this story out!
Hi Lael;
Can you please tell me how to contact your film producers? I have a couple of questions for them.
Thanks
Richard Wright

You are frigging amazing! I just got into riding myself and I am discovering the joy and pain of it.
thank you!
Just watched your movie. I’ll forward this gem to friends. I love how you say all you have to do is ride 200 miles per day, and climb 20,000 feet or thereabouts. It doesn’t matter since those are ridiculous numbers anyways. The Deathride would be something you’d do before lunch.
But what really hooked me in was how you retired from the race. MAJOR respect from me, and I suspect everyone who doesn’t sit behind a keyboard as you say. Hard to believe you got criticized on FB?!!

Thanks Dan! I really appreciate the encouragement.
AMAZINGGGG !!
Thanks!
Hi Lael. Thank you a lot for sharing. Truly motivating. I hope you will keep the love to ride. Have a nice one
Thanks Olivier! I’m so grateful to get to do what I love. I haven’t gotten tired of it yet and will keep going until it’s not fun anymore 🙂
