I'll add another awesome. Produced by Yvon Chouinard? I wonder what the story is behind that?

Thanks for posting. Brings back memories of some chilly Scottish winter days.

That was a great film... brings out the essence of it all.

Love the bike! His courage shows right from the start where he's not wearing gloves riding in the Scotish winter. Bbbrrrrrrrrr!!!
