Our Torino Nice - A Bikepacking Reunion in the Alps

In this captivating film, three friends embark on a spirited adventure as they reunite to participate in the Torino Nice Rally. Having first met while racing in the inaugural Atlas Mountain Race, these three ultra-racing veterans decide to get the band back together for what appears to be a more relaxed endeavor. Each equipped with their custom-made Quirk Cycles, they set out to conquer the formidable challenges that lie ahead. However, as the journey unfolds, it becomes evident that these riders may have bitten off more than they can chew. With breathtaking landscapes, unexpected obstacles, and personal trials, this film takes viewers on an exhilarating ride that tests the limits of friendship, determination, and the human spirit.

Captured and brought to life by filmmaker Michael Drummond, the scene is set for an extraordinary adventure as he joins together with photographer Tom Jamieson and framebuilder Rob Quirk. In this quest devoid of fuel stations, route markings, or support vehicles, they are faced with the challenge of navigating the unknown, drawing inspiration from the daring feats of past Rough Stuff Fellowship riders. Each pedal stroke propels them deeper into a world where beauty and brutality intermingle, painting a picture of adventure and camaraderie that will leave viewers breathless.
