About the Film:

Freedom Riders is about a core group of riders who evolved to creating a precedent setting relationship with the Forest Service and in doing so created the first freeride specific trails on public lands in the lower 48.

Freedom Riders takes a look at the evolution of the sport, the progression of trail users, and an inside story of a group of riders that would never see their passion die.
