A burning ambition to conquer mountain biking at altitude in the Andes is shared by two athletes, Nathan Fa`avee and Tony (T-Man) Moore.
They are joined in La Paz, the world`s highest capital city, by Alistair Mathews, a New Zealander who lives and works in Bolivia where he runs a company called Gravity Assisted Mountain Biking.
Nathan and Tony face the challenges devised by Alistair, with plenty of heart-stopping drama along the way, and the competition between the two bikers intensifies.
It`s time for Tony to take on the mighty Taquesi Trail. At around 20 miles long this is one of the most exciting downhill trails in the world. Then Nathan takes on a 56-mile uphill ride with a vertical gain of nearly 14,000 feet. The tension builds as Nathan pushes his body through an excruciatingly painful experience to claim an unofficial world record mountain bike climb at altitude.
An inspirational celebration of skill, grit and bloody-minded determination.
