Forty-five cyclists from around the world set out on the inaugural Trans-Am Bike Race to cover 4,233 miles in one enormous stage race. “Inspired to Ride'' follows the journey of a handful of these cyclists as they embark on the grueling ride. They rely solely on their fitness, meticulously chosen gear, and mental fortitude to get them to the finish. Traversing the Great Plains, enduring the sleet of the Rockies, and navigating the switchbacks of the Appalachians, they operate on the edge of exhaustion all for a pat on the back, bragging rights and a cold beer when it's all over. No support teams, no follow vehicles and no prize money waiting at the end. Some are out to win, some simply to finish. “Inspired to Ride” takes us on an invigorating road trip of epic proportions.
