Accomplice (2020) Movie Script

First memory
it's a tough one.
There's a lot of 'em.
Whoo, good going, Curtis.
My baby's a sailboat captain at sea
We don't give a damn
We do as we please
My baby's a sailboat captain at sea
My gal is a good one,
Tells me she's mine
Wish I could have been looking
Baby I don't mind
My gal is a good one,
She tells me she's fine
Cameron, how old are you?
Four.
How old are you
gonna be in 10 days?
Five.
Anything to make you love me
Any more than you do
Happy birthday
Hurry.
My baby's a sailboat captain at sea
We don't give a damn
We do as we please
My baby's a sailboat captain at sea
- Yes.
- Okay, go.
- Go left. Oh, my God
- Yes, yes.
My gal is a good one,
Tells me she's mine
Wish I was better looking
Baby don't mind
My gal is a good one
Tells me she's mine
What is it?
Whoa, yes, yes.
What do you think?
Good job, buddy.
Go, Ethan.
Here comes Tyler.
Ah, I messed up.
Keep going, Curtis.
Oh, good dismount.
Yes, Curtis, keep pedaling.
But you're in my head
When we were in your bed
You said, you said, yeah
I'm so freaking sorry for this
Good Hannah, atta girl.
Say you don't mean that
Da-da, da-da, da-da
Da-da, da-da, da-da
Yeah.
Da-da, da-da, da-da
My baby's a sailboat captain at sea
We don't give a damn
We do as we please
My baby's a sailboat captain at sea
Oh, man,
my first memory was
The first thing that
comes to mind is that first one
I was probably
five, six-years-old
My dad picked it up
at the flea market.
James got it
at that little supermarket.
It was
like tippy toes,
just trying to get my feet on the pedals.
I remember the
handle bars were above my head.
I was seven-years-old
and that changed my life.
It opened almost every
door there is for me.
Hello.
I really suck at these.
You don't have to send out
a disclaimer, just bust.
He wasn't lying.
-What?
-Nothing.
There you go.
Nice.
Oh, that's Cedric Gracia.
You're getting a lot of
tricks on this thing.
Here you go,
I'll hand the camera down to you.
Yeah.
Here you go.
- Is it filming right now?
-Yeah.
Hi.
Oh, hold up I'm gonna change angles.
I'm filming.
Oh, no.
- What!
Dude, you hit it perfect.
Wow, nice work, guinea pig,
that looked terrifying.
Look at that, dude,
right there, holy cow.
I'm gonna
start lining this up.
It's like guinea pig ping pong.
Yeah that's the
right speed, I think.
I think I felt that one.
When you're ready,
I'll just count you down.
Right he's dropping,
three, two, one.
Yeah.
Trainsies on this sucker.
Yeah, we're ready for that.
Rock, paper, scissors.
Rock, paper, scissors
two out of three or
-Yeah, loser goes first.
-Winner leads, huh?
Or winner follows.
What does the
loser have to do?
-Lead or follow?
-I guess it's lead.
Lead.
Loser should lead, that's what I thought.
That's right, yeah.
-Okay, cool.
-One, two, shoot.
- No!
-Let's go.
Tyler's the loser.
-Four, three, two, one, let's fly.
-You got it?
Words can stab
As deep as night
And hurt like a razored thorn
Bitter air and the winds of spite
Like the cold of winter's scorn
Leaves may fall on sleeping ground
But the wind sweeps them away
Like hurt lovers in the final round
What once was is now decayed
I can't go on living alone
Now that you're gone
Yeah!
A single strand of a spider's weave
Just dancing in the sun
Please don't turn around and leave
You are my only one
Compromise is made out of peace
But history's made out of violence
After the war of the worlds has ceased
All that's left
Is the deafening silence
I can't go on living alone
Now that you're gone
You done me wrong,
So here's your song
Come on, dude,
wow, look at that.
Well, that was really fun.
Crazy, oh, man, that was rad.
-Target acquired!
This sound cold to you?
Okay, ready?
Drop it in, three, two, one.
Yeah.
Well, I know you know
That you're killing me
But it's worth it
Just to see you smile
Tell 'em to carve my name
In the bar stool, baby
You know I'm gonna
Be here a while
A single strand of a spider's weave
Just dancing in the sun
Yeah.
Please don't turn around and leave
You are my only one
I can't go on living alone
Now that you're gone
You done me wrong,
So here's your song
Yeah, baby!
Now sing along
Nice.
Yeah, that's so cool.
That was super cool.
Whip, oh, butter.
That was sick.
Oh, that was a good pause.
Yeah!
Wait, hold on, stay there,
don't move.
-With a broken foot.
-Yeah.
Look at him walk.
Peg Leg.
Peg Leg. Okay, see ya.
Oh, yeah.
I think the exploration is such
a huge part of mountain biking.
That's kind of like
the roots of mountain biking,
riding on terrain that
you wouldn't normally interact with.
So, we've just
turned up in Ladakh, India,
which is on the border of Tibet, China,
Pakistan, super mountainous.
Dope!
I see trips like this
as a massive opportunity to sort of
like build on myself.
To see the locals so at ease
in seemingly harsh
environment was inspiring.
The whole environment's
pretty just overwhelming,
it's the best word to describe it.
That's a massive, cool.
Everything looks sick.
Riding somewhere
brand new to both of us,
then also somewhere
that no one's really
ever ridden lines before.
That should be
sweet to ride over.
It was super great
to have her there.
So, we could chat, bounce ideas.
What do you reckon to that?
I like it because it looks
like you'd have more space.
More room to curve
around and stuff.
- Yeah.
-Yeah, for sure.
It's more like a
team sport, really.
You just put the bottom
bracket on your shoulders.
Let's try.
I still feel very tired.
Pick it up and like,
put the tires in.
-Should we send it?
- Yeah.
We were at like 10,000 feet
which is 3,300 meters roughly.
Jesus.
Ah, I regret this decision.
Obviously, like, I'm used
to being around mountains
or hills basically in the UK,
but nothing on this scale.
It makes you feel really small.
All right, 10 seconds.
Nine, eight,
seven, six,
five, four, three,
two, one.
Drop it in.
Whoo!
Whoo! Get it!
-Yo, that was sick.
-Nice.
Okay.
Sick,
oh, it's so cool.
It's very much a
collaborative process.
Hang on.
I think we both ended
up riding things,
that we might not have otherwise.
Well, I feel like on this trip
anyway, I've come away like,
knowing what I want to
work on within myself.
And part of that is based off of
the locals I've seen,
like how they interact with each other.
Yeah, there you go.
Definitely an
experience of a lifetime,
something I will take
with me for a long time.
No.
It's been an amazing learning curve,
and it's been sick to share with people
who are super hyped as well.
I love it when everyone
pushes each other
and then pushes
themselves around others.
One last call
And I'm feeling drunk again
Got this old guitar
And some skinny cigarettes
Come on, boy, come on.
Not quite sure just
Exactly where I am
But tomorrow I'll be home
And it won't matter
Where I've been
When the sun comes up in the morning
I'll be well on my way home
Darling now's the time
To dry your eyes
'Cause I'll be holding you
In the morning light
Bentley, good girl.
Are the longest that I've seen
From Austin to LA
And everywhere between
Come on, Bentley.
Don't you worry baby
I'll be coming home again
I'll be walking up your road
I'll be holding out my hand
When the sun comes up in the morning
I'll be well on my way home
Darling now's the time
To dry your eyes
'Cause I'll be holding you
In the morning light
I'll be holding on to you
In the morning
Light
Good girl.
Yeah, that's one of my
favorite parts about this trip.
We're here with a
group of friends.
We got Buehler, Aggy,
Sorge, Nico, and myself.
We've all
been friends for so long.
It's a reunion for us.
This is like, you know,
the proper BC experience,
coming out here and being
in this mountain range.
Ten days riding every day
coming back to rad camp.
It's like, just
what you dream of.
There's a
certain silence to it,
that you can't really describe
until you experience it.
Yeah, camp life,
it's it's cold.
Yeah, I find it pretty cold.
I'm used to some warmer weather.
Welcome to the camp.
This is where we live,
me and Nico.
We're sharing this tent that
we borrow from mister Agassiz.
It's a little bit
messy in here now.
We got Aggy, who's probably
got the secret set up here.
So he's pretty warm at night,
now good on him because
it's actually freezing here.
Really important tools here.
The generals they save
a lot of hiking time
and a lot of energy.
And show you guys,
the most luxurious part
of the camp, I would say.
We've got Sorge
sleeping down there.
I think he went for the
most dangerous spot around,
that's where the bear is
gonna come from, I think.
Here we got Aggy,
he's a natural barman.
Hello, sir.
Looks like these guys are
getting their sauna ready.
Come in.
Yeah, boy.
Sorge, dude, beach day or what?
All the guys on this trip,
they're all like buddies to me.
Camping here with them,
like, it's pretty epic.
Slap the bass, buddy.
Come on, girl.
Can't wait to
not shower for ten days.
I don't know, biking, it's always better,
when you're sharing it with someone else.
And this was a zone that
needed to be shared.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's sick, hey.
Oh, dude, this looks insane.
Kinda gnarly though.
Pretty sporty.
This is a long one, man.
You're a super badass
or you're an idiot, you know.
I think you badass.
Yeah, Kurt.
Yeah boys, atta boy.
Roll.
Sorta nice, dropping in.
That was it.
Go.
Go.
Yeah, Sorge, that's nice, dude.
Yeah, Sorge, nice!
Yeah, boys.
That's very nice, yeah, Garett.
Oh, yeah, dude!
That's a sick line.
Yo, he's good.
Yeah, Garett.
Wow, that was so intense.
I was so scared.
Yeah, boys,
see you guys at the bottom.
Yeah!
Yeah, Nico.
Yeah! Woo!
Yeah, Buehler.
The lazy purist.
Oh, yeah, dude.
Yeah, Sorge.
Yeah, Kurt,
here comes Aggy.
Oh! No way, dude.
Kinda nervous.
Use your
brain and your brakes,
all right, buddy.
Yeah, Andreu to Aggy,
it's good to go, dude.
It's so fun!
Hell yeah, brother.
See you in a second.
Yeah, Aggy, my man. Whoo!
Yeah, buddy.
Come on, Aggy.
Yeah, here you are.
Oh, buddy.
Yeah, Aggy.
Go!
Dude, Aggy's deep, yeah, buddy!
You were ripping, dude!
Oh, I couldn't go any slower!
Oh, yeah!
See you at the bottom, guys.
Yeah, Nico.
Where's Nico going?
-Damn, that looks nice.
- Yeah, Nico.
Yeah, boys!
You were so fast.
That was sick.
Yeah, my dudes.
Hell yeah, boys.
Here's comes the party line.
Crazy to think
that 10, 15 years ago,
I was just a little grom and
this was just all a dream.
Yeah, Buehler.
And now it's become a reality
and I'm riding with my heroes,
and get to call them my best friends.
Yeah, boys.
Good day in the mountains.
You guys got bear spray?
I've watched Cam Zink videos
growing up,
watching Ride Rampage
before I was even in
and just thinking he was
the man and he still is.
Just seeing mental battles and
stuff he overcomes helps me.
He's definitely an
inspiration in my riding.
Yeah, it's so
cool to be able to walk
around out here
and seeing him like,
"Oh, yeah, wish you could ride that,"
you're like, "No way."
I think you're gonna
want to pop it a hair
so I'd go a little
bit slower at the top.
He's a legend.
He's had a lot of experience
and it helps us a lot.
He's just a gnarly dude.
And he'll never stop.
Going.
-Get it, Zink.
-Yeah, Cam!
Too much on the line
Too much to give in
If you think it's over
Then let's start it again
The planets align
The stars burn bright
The sun goes down
We keep going all night
Don't back down
The moment is now
Don't miss out
We're never turning around
The night is young
We're wild and free
Riding with
Jaxson, Tom and Ethan,
it's just incredible to watch.
There is a future for sure.
Here to lead the way.
We're renegades
We're renegades
Whoa! Hell yeah!
We're renegades
They'll never see us
'Cause we move in the night
Yeah, Jaxson, get it.
Well, I was ready if
They put up a fight
Out-run, out-climb
We'll out-shine
You were wrong to think
It was worth it to try
So listen up, listen up
I'm calling your bluff
Calling your bluff
Give her hell, bud.
Give it up give it up
I think you've had enough
You've had enough
We're renegades
Oh, my God.
We're renegades
We're renegades
Too much on the line
Too much to give in
If you think it's over
Then let's start it again
The planets align
The stars burn bright
The sun goes down
Let's keep going all night
So listen up, listen up
I'm calling your bluff
Calling your bluff
Yeah give it up give it up
I think you've had enough
You've had enough
We're renegades
Wow.
We're renegades
-Roll it.
-Get it, Zink.
We're renegades
That was so sick.
- You're up.
- Yeah, chief.
We're renegades
We're renegades
Yo!
-Whoo!
-That was so sick.
Yeah, I don't know
if I would have done that,
if Zink wasn't here
pushing his limits as hard as he is.
It's definitely super inspiring.
Oh, yeah!
Yeah, the bike has brought me
the best opportunities in life.
It has given me the best
memories of my life, right,
like winning those events,
traveling around the world.
Come on, who wouldn't
want that lifestyle?
It was amazing.
Next racer,
Paul Basagoitia,
trying to get that height.
Paul Basagoitia.
It's crazy. I barely
even got in those events.
No one knew who I was.
And now I win one of the
biggest mountain bike comps.
I think no matter what
sport Paul would have done,
he would have had the
grit to be a champion.
Ladies
and gentlemen, Paul.
And then I'm in a weird situation
'cause the bike also caused
one of the worst
situations in my life.
At one point I hated the bike.
Next rider
at the top of the course,
this is Paul Basagoitia.
A guy who has won so many
events in his storied career,
going long on the step down,
can he hold on?
Oh, no.
It wasn't the biggest crash
ever taken in my career.
I thought it was totally fine.
When I hit the
ground I was so pissed
and I was like "Damn,
I gotta go up and do it again."
I was ready to do my second run.
Like, I didn't hurt.
I was totally fine.
Until I tried to move
and then that's when I knew
I was in big trouble.
I couldn't move my legs.
Looking back at it, I remember
when I was getting like,
this is crazy, when I was
getting cut open in ICU
during surgery, at a ten
and a half hour surgery,
I remember having a flashback
of 15 years of the bike.
I remember like the
first couple crank works,
I remember traveling to Europe.
I remember all those first tricks
that I was doing.
So, stoked, I mean last year,
I came out here,
no sponsors,
nothing and then I won.
And then this year, I can't
believe I repeated it.
I remember waking up from ICU
ten hours later,
wake up the next day still no movement.
Six months, still no movement,
you know, wheelchair for a year.
Holy shit.
What just happened in my life?
How you feeling today?
A little better man,
every day is getting a little bit better.
I was in a dark space, I hated the bike.
I sold all my bikes.
I never wanted to even
look at the bike again.
For me, it was like, what's the word, um,
insecurity of me, and my situation.
Wobbling around with a cane,
like, people looking at me different,
like, "Must suck to be Paul now."
You know?
When you're at the top of
the game, everybody's there.
Everybody wants
a piece of you right?
But when you're at the very bottom,
that's when people should
be there for you the most
and that's where Cam was.
Even in the early stages,
he would come
and visit me in the hospital.
Weeks after my injury
he would still come to hospital,
see how I'm doing.
I go home. He's like, "Hey
do you need anything?"
He'd always be there asking like,
"Hey if you ever want to go
and try to ride that bike again,
"I'll be the first one to help you out."
When everything is
taken away from you,
you appreciate those
little pedal strokes.
Up on the mountain
Caught on the rail line
Up on the mountain
Caught on the rail line
My brother, let the heart just beat
Drink your wine, smoke your weed
My brother, let the heart still beat
And wear your silver lining
I don't feel normal.
When I wake up in the morning,
I look for my cane,
I look for my bracing.
But when I start riding the bike,
it's the only time in life
that I feel normal.
But if it's the drugs,
The women, the wine, the weed
The love that took everything I own
Just take it
Oh, oh, oh
And tell the ones you love
You love them
Teach only what you know, and oh
You better know it well
We drove from coast to coast
I don't get why a lot of people
are hating on the E-bikes.
If it wasn't for the E- bike,
I would be locked inside my house.
Not being able to ride with my friends,
not given me the freedom to do so.
And you know I know how that feels
Don't get cheated, kid
Just sweep from your heels
And if you get carried away
Let the music play you
Through the pain
What helped with me,
I can only speak for myself, is time,
and then realizing that no matter
how bad your situation is,
there's always someone out there
that has it worse than you,
that is dying to be in your position.
Now live by that.
But if it's the drugs
The women, the wine, the weed
The love that took everything I own
Just take it
Oh, oh, oh
And tell the ones you love
You love them
Teach only what you know and oh
You better know it well
Up on the mountain
Caught on the rail line
Up on the mountain
Caught on the rail line
It's very humbling
what the bike has given me.
The freedom,
the escape from everything and everyone.
It's given me a community.
Some of my best
friends are actually,
I met them through bike riding.
Sorge, nice.
It's an outlet for being creative
and expressing myself.
It's like this weird time
machine where we're older
and there's a lot more
stuff going on in our lives.
It's fun.
But it's still same
feeling as it was back then.
It's a pretty cool relationship
with the machine.
Let's do this, ready?
Oh, my gosh, I think you're on it.
I think you're on it, go, go, go, go!
Yeah!
No way! Yeah, Shy!
Poor old granddad
I laughed at all his words
I thought he was a bitter man
He spoke of women's ways
They'll trap you,
Then they use you
Before you even know
For love is blind and
You're far too kind
Don't ever let it show
I wish that I knew
What I know now
When I was younger
I wish that I knew
What I know now
And I think it was off camera
when I remember telling Towana.
Towana went like,
"Dude, after this documentary, man,
you're never gonna see me."
And here we are shooting the
mountain bike segment.
We made these stickers #IrideforPaul
after his accident.
And then we put a little amendment
with the X over it that
said, "I ride with Paul."
Yeah, enjoy those
moments with your friends.
This lifestyle,
this competitive side of things
does not last forever.
So, if you walk in
and help those other people,
and maybe another day
winning is not everything.
It's about enjoying those moments
with your best friends.
When you want her lips
You get a cheek
Makes you wonder where you are
If you want some more
And she's fast asleep
Then she's twinkling with the stars
Poor young grandson
There's nothing I can say
What do you think, bud?
And that's the hardest way
Ooh-la-la
Ooh-la-la, la-la, yeah
All right, in the fish tank,
in the creek.
-Looks really sick though.
I wish that I knew
What I know now
When I was younger
I wish that I knew
What I know now
2005 taking over the world!
When I was stronger
Can we go together?
Heck yeah!
Come on, Kelly, follow the trail with me.
See you later.
First memory
it's a tough one.
There's a lot of 'em.
Whoo, good going, Curtis.
My baby's a sailboat captain at sea
We don't give a damn
We do as we please
My baby's a sailboat captain at sea
My gal is a good one,
Tells me she's mine
Wish I could have been looking
Baby I don't mind
My gal is a good one,
She tells me she's fine
Cameron, how old are you?
Four.
How old are you
gonna be in 10 days?
Five.
Anything to make you love me
Any more than you do
Happy birthday
Hurry.
My baby's a sailboat captain at sea
We don't give a damn
We do as we please
My baby's a sailboat captain at sea
- Yes.
- Okay, go.
- Go left. Oh, my God
- Yes, yes.
My gal is a good one,
Tells me she's mine
Wish I was better looking
Baby don't mind
My gal is a good one
Tells me she's mine
What is it?
Whoa, yes, yes.
What do you think?
Good job, buddy.
Go, Ethan.
Here comes Tyler.
Ah, I messed up.
Keep going, Curtis.
Oh, good dismount.
Yes, Curtis, keep pedaling.
But you're in my head
When we were in your bed
You said, you said, yeah
I'm so freaking sorry for this
Good Hannah, atta girl.
Say you don't mean that
Da-da, da-da, da-da
Da-da, da-da, da-da
Yeah.
Da-da, da-da, da-da
My baby's a sailboat captain at sea
We don't give a damn
We do as we please
My baby's a sailboat captain at sea
Oh, man,
my first memory was
The first thing that
comes to mind is that first one
I was probably
five, six-years-old
My dad picked it up
at the flea market.
James got it
at that little supermarket.
It was
like tippy toes,
just trying to get my feet on the pedals.
I remember the
handle bars were above my head.
I was seven-years-old
and that changed my life.
It opened almost every
door there is for me.
Hello.
I really suck at these.
You don't have to send out
a disclaimer, just bust.
He wasn't lying.
-What?
-Nothing.
There you go.
Nice.
Oh, that's Cedric Gracia.
You're getting a lot of
tricks on this thing.
Here you go,
I'll hand the camera down to you.
Yeah.
Here you go.
- Is it filming right now?
-Yeah.
Hi.
Oh, hold up I'm gonna change angles.
I'm filming.
Oh, no.
- What!
Dude, you hit it perfect.
Wow, nice work, guinea pig,
that looked terrifying.
Look at that, dude,
right there, holy cow.
I'm gonna
start lining this up.
It's like guinea pig ping pong.
Yeah that's the
right speed, I think.
I think I felt that one.
When you're ready,
I'll just count you down.
Right he's dropping,
three, two, one.
Yeah.
Trainsies on this sucker.
Yeah, we're ready for that.
Rock, paper, scissors.
Rock, paper, scissors
two out of three or
-Yeah, loser goes first.
-Winner leads, huh?
Or winner follows.
What does the
loser have to do?
-Lead or follow?
-I guess it's lead.
Lead.
Loser should lead, that's what I thought.
That's right, yeah.
-Okay, cool.
-One, two, shoot.
- No!
-Let's go.
Tyler's the loser.
-Four, three, two, one, let's fly.
-You got it?
Words can stab
As deep as night
And hurt like a razored thorn
Bitter air and the winds of spite
Like the cold of winter's scorn
Leaves may fall on sleeping ground
But the wind sweeps them away
Like hurt lovers in the final round
What once was is now decayed
I can't go on living alone
Now that you're gone
Yeah!
A single strand of a spider's weave
Just dancing in the sun
Please don't turn around and leave
You are my only one
Compromise is made out of peace
But history's made out of violence
After the war of the worlds has ceased
All that's left
Is the deafening silence
I can't go on living alone
Now that you're gone
You done me wrong,
So here's your song
Come on, dude,
wow, look at that.
Well, that was really fun.
Crazy, oh, man, that was rad.
-Target acquired!
This sound cold to you?
Okay, ready?
Drop it in, three, two, one.
Yeah.
Well, I know you know
That you're killing me
But it's worth it
Just to see you smile
Tell 'em to carve my name
In the bar stool, baby
You know I'm gonna
Be here a while
A single strand of a spider's weave
Just dancing in the sun
Yeah.
Please don't turn around and leave
You are my only one
I can't go on living alone
Now that you're gone
You done me wrong,
So here's your song
Yeah, baby!
Now sing along
Nice.
Yeah, that's so cool.
That was super cool.
Whip, oh, butter.
That was sick.
Oh, that was a good pause.
Yeah!
Wait, hold on, stay there,
don't move.
-With a broken foot.
-Yeah.
Look at him walk.
Peg Leg.
Peg Leg. Okay, see ya.
Oh, yeah.
I think the exploration is such
a huge part of mountain biking.
That's kind of like
the roots of mountain biking,
riding on terrain that
you wouldn't normally interact with.
So, we've just
turned up in Ladakh, India,
which is on the border of Tibet, China,
Pakistan, super mountainous.
Dope!
I see trips like this
as a massive opportunity to sort of
like build on myself.
To see the locals so at ease
in seemingly harsh
environment was inspiring.
The whole environment's
pretty just overwhelming,
it's the best word to describe it.
That's a massive, cool.
Everything looks sick.
Riding somewhere
brand new to both of us,
then also somewhere
that no one's really
ever ridden lines before.
That should be
sweet to ride over.
It was super great
to have her there.
So, we could chat, bounce ideas.
What do you reckon to that?
I like it because it looks
like you'd have more space.
More room to curve
around and stuff.
- Yeah.
-Yeah, for sure.
It's more like a
team sport, really.
You just put the bottom
bracket on your shoulders.
Let's try.
I still feel very tired.
Pick it up and like,
put the tires in.
-Should we send it?
- Yeah.
We were at like 10,000 feet
which is 3,300 meters roughly.
Jesus.
Ah, I regret this decision.
Obviously, like, I'm used
to being around mountains
or hills basically in the UK,
but nothing on this scale.
It makes you feel really small.
All right, 10 seconds.
Nine, eight,
seven, six,
five, four, three,
two, one.
Drop it in.
Whoo!
Whoo! Get it!
-Yo, that was sick.
-Nice.
Okay.
Sick,
oh, it's so cool.
It's very much a
collaborative process.
Hang on.
I think we both ended
up riding things,
that we might not have otherwise.
Well, I feel like on this trip
anyway, I've come away like,
knowing what I want to
work on within myself.
And part of that is based off of
the locals I've seen,
like how they interact with each other.
Yeah, there you go.
Definitely an
experience of a lifetime,
something I will take
with me for a long time.
No.
It's been an amazing learning curve,
and it's been sick to share with people
who are super hyped as well.
I love it when everyone
pushes each other
and then pushes
themselves around others.
One last call
And I'm feeling drunk again
Got this old guitar
And some skinny cigarettes
Come on, boy, come on.
Not quite sure just
Exactly where I am
But tomorrow I'll be home
And it won't matter
Where I've been
When the sun comes up in the morning
I'll be well on my way home
Darling now's the time
To dry your eyes
'Cause I'll be holding you
In the morning light
Bentley, good girl.
Are the longest that I've seen
From Austin to LA
And everywhere between
Come on, Bentley.
Don't you worry baby
I'll be coming home again
I'll be walking up your road
I'll be holding out my hand
When the sun comes up in the morning
I'll be well on my way home
Darling now's the time
To dry your eyes
'Cause I'll be holding you
In the morning light
I'll be holding on to you
In the morning
Light
Good girl.
Yeah, that's one of my
favorite parts about this trip.
We're here with a
group of friends.
We got Buehler, Aggy,
Sorge, Nico, and myself.
We've all
been friends for so long.
It's a reunion for us.
This is like, you know,
the proper BC experience,
coming out here and being
in this mountain range.
Ten days riding every day
coming back to rad camp.
It's like, just
what you dream of.
There's a
certain silence to it,
that you can't really describe
until you experience it.
Yeah, camp life,
it's it's cold.
Yeah, I find it pretty cold.
I'm used to some warmer weather.
Welcome to the camp.
This is where we live,
me and Nico.
We're sharing this tent that
we borrow from mister Agassiz.
It's a little bit
messy in here now.
We got Aggy, who's probably
got the secret set up here.
So he's pretty warm at night,
now good on him because
it's actually freezing here.
Really important tools here.
The generals they save
a lot of hiking time
and a lot of energy.
And show you guys,
the most luxurious part
of the camp, I would say.
We've got Sorge
sleeping down there.
I think he went for the
most dangerous spot around,
that's where the bear is
gonna come from, I think.
Here we got Aggy,
he's a natural barman.
Hello, sir.
Looks like these guys are
getting their sauna ready.
Come in.
Yeah, boy.
Sorge, dude, beach day or what?
All the guys on this trip,
they're all like buddies to me.
Camping here with them,
like, it's pretty epic.
Slap the bass, buddy.
Come on, girl.
Can't wait to
not shower for ten days.
I don't know, biking, it's always better,
when you're sharing it with someone else.
And this was a zone that
needed to be shared.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's sick, hey.
Oh, dude, this looks insane.
Kinda gnarly though.
Pretty sporty.
This is a long one, man.
You're a super badass
or you're an idiot, you know.
I think you badass.
Yeah, Kurt.
Yeah boys, atta boy.
Roll.
Sorta nice, dropping in.
That was it.
Go.
Go.
Yeah, Sorge, that's nice, dude.
Yeah, Sorge, nice!
Yeah, boys.
That's very nice, yeah, Garett.
Oh, yeah, dude!
That's a sick line.
Yo, he's good.
Yeah, Garett.
Wow, that was so intense.
I was so scared.
Yeah, boys,
see you guys at the bottom.
Yeah!
Yeah, Nico.
Yeah! Woo!
Yeah, Buehler.
The lazy purist.
Oh, yeah, dude.
Yeah, Sorge.
Yeah, Kurt,
here comes Aggy.
Oh! No way, dude.
Kinda nervous.
Use your
brain and your brakes,
all right, buddy.
Yeah, Andreu to Aggy,
it's good to go, dude.
It's so fun!
Hell yeah, brother.
See you in a second.
Yeah, Aggy, my man. Whoo!
Yeah, buddy.
Come on, Aggy.
Yeah, here you are.
Oh, buddy.
Yeah, Aggy.
Go!
Dude, Aggy's deep, yeah, buddy!
You were ripping, dude!
Oh, I couldn't go any slower!
Oh, yeah!
See you at the bottom, guys.
Yeah, Nico.
Where's Nico going?
-Damn, that looks nice.
- Yeah, Nico.
Yeah, boys!
You were so fast.
That was sick.
Yeah, my dudes.
Hell yeah, boys.
Here's comes the party line.
Crazy to think
that 10, 15 years ago,
I was just a little grom and
this was just all a dream.
Yeah, Buehler.
And now it's become a reality
and I'm riding with my heroes,
and get to call them my best friends.
Yeah, boys.
Good day in the mountains.
You guys got bear spray?
I've watched Cam Zink videos
growing up,
watching Ride Rampage
before I was even in
and just thinking he was
the man and he still is.
Just seeing mental battles and
stuff he overcomes helps me.
He's definitely an
inspiration in my riding.
Yeah, it's so
cool to be able to walk
around out here
and seeing him like,
"Oh, yeah, wish you could ride that,"
you're like, "No way."
I think you're gonna
want to pop it a hair
so I'd go a little
bit slower at the top.
He's a legend.
He's had a lot of experience
and it helps us a lot.
He's just a gnarly dude.
And he'll never stop.
Going.
-Get it, Zink.
-Yeah, Cam!
Too much on the line
Too much to give in
If you think it's over
Then let's start it again
The planets align
The stars burn bright
The sun goes down
We keep going all night
Don't back down
The moment is now
Don't miss out
We're never turning around
The night is young
We're wild and free
Riding with
Jaxson, Tom and Ethan,
it's just incredible to watch.
There is a future for sure.
Here to lead the way.
We're renegades
We're renegades
Whoa! Hell yeah!
We're renegades
They'll never see us
'Cause we move in the night
Yeah, Jaxson, get it.
Well, I was ready if
They put up a fight
Out-run, out-climb
We'll out-shine
You were wrong to think
It was worth it to try
So listen up, listen up
I'm calling your bluff
Calling your bluff
Give her hell, bud.
Give it up give it up
I think you've had enough
You've had enough
We're renegades
Oh, my God.
We're renegades
We're renegades
Too much on the line
Too much to give in
If you think it's over
Then let's start it again
The planets align
The stars burn bright
The sun goes down
Let's keep going all night
So listen up, listen up
I'm calling your bluff
Calling your bluff
Yeah give it up give it up
I think you've had enough
You've had enough
We're renegades
Wow.
We're renegades
-Roll it.
-Get it, Zink.
We're renegades
That was so sick.
- You're up.
- Yeah, chief.
We're renegades
We're renegades
Yo!
-Whoo!
-That was so sick.
Yeah, I don't know
if I would have done that,
if Zink wasn't here
pushing his limits as hard as he is.
It's definitely super inspiring.
Oh, yeah!
Yeah, the bike has brought me
the best opportunities in life.
It has given me the best
memories of my life, right,
like winning those events,
traveling around the world.
Come on, who wouldn't
want that lifestyle?
It was amazing.
Next racer,
Paul Basagoitia,
trying to get that height.
Paul Basagoitia.
It's crazy. I barely
even got in those events.
No one knew who I was.
And now I win one of the
biggest mountain bike comps.
I think no matter what
sport Paul would have done,
he would have had the
grit to be a champion.
Ladies
and gentlemen, Paul.
And then I'm in a weird situation
'cause the bike also caused
one of the worst
situations in my life.
At one point I hated the bike.
Next rider
at the top of the course,
this is Paul Basagoitia.
A guy who has won so many
events in his storied career,
going long on the step down,
can he hold on?
Oh, no.
It wasn't the biggest crash
ever taken in my career.
I thought it was totally fine.
When I hit the
ground I was so pissed
and I was like "Damn,
I gotta go up and do it again."
I was ready to do my second run.
Like, I didn't hurt.
I was totally fine.
Until I tried to move
and then that's when I knew
I was in big trouble.
I couldn't move my legs.
Looking back at it, I remember
when I was getting like,
this is crazy, when I was
getting cut open in ICU
during surgery, at a ten
and a half hour surgery,
I remember having a flashback
of 15 years of the bike.
I remember like the
first couple crank works,
I remember traveling to Europe.
I remember all those first tricks
that I was doing.
So, stoked, I mean last year,
I came out here,
no sponsors,
nothing and then I won.
And then this year, I can't
believe I repeated it.
I remember waking up from ICU
ten hours later,
wake up the next day still no movement.
Six months, still no movement,
you know, wheelchair for a year.
Holy shit.
What just happened in my life?
How you feeling today?
A little better man,
every day is getting a little bit better.
I was in a dark space, I hated the bike.
I sold all my bikes.
I never wanted to even
look at the bike again.
For me, it was like, what's the word, um,
insecurity of me, and my situation.
Wobbling around with a cane,
like, people looking at me different,
like, "Must suck to be Paul now."
You know?
When you're at the top of
the game, everybody's there.
Everybody wants
a piece of you right?
But when you're at the very bottom,
that's when people should
be there for you the most
and that's where Cam was.
Even in the early stages,
he would come
and visit me in the hospital.
Weeks after my injury
he would still come to hospital,
see how I'm doing.
I go home. He's like, "Hey
do you need anything?"
He'd always be there asking like,
"Hey if you ever want to go
and try to ride that bike again,
"I'll be the first one to help you out."
When everything is
taken away from you,
you appreciate those
little pedal strokes.
Up on the mountain
Caught on the rail line
Up on the mountain
Caught on the rail line
My brother, let the heart just beat
Drink your wine, smoke your weed
My brother, let the heart still beat
And wear your silver lining
I don't feel normal.
When I wake up in the morning,
I look for my cane,
I look for my bracing.
But when I start riding the bike,
it's the only time in life
that I feel normal.
But if it's the drugs,
The women, the wine, the weed
The love that took everything I own
Just take it
Oh, oh, oh
And tell the ones you love
You love them
Teach only what you know, and oh
You better know it well
We drove from coast to coast
I don't get why a lot of people
are hating on the E-bikes.
If it wasn't for the E- bike,
I would be locked inside my house.
Not being able to ride with my friends,
not given me the freedom to do so.
And you know I know how that feels
Don't get cheated, kid
Just sweep from your heels
And if you get carried away
Let the music play you
Through the pain
What helped with me,
I can only speak for myself, is time,
and then realizing that no matter
how bad your situation is,
there's always someone out there
that has it worse than you,
that is dying to be in your position.
Now live by that.
But if it's the drugs
The women, the wine, the weed
The love that took everything I own
Just take it
Oh, oh, oh
And tell the ones you love
You love them
Teach only what you know and oh
You better know it well
Up on the mountain
Caught on the rail line
Up on the mountain
Caught on the rail line
It's very humbling
what the bike has given me.
The freedom,
the escape from everything and everyone.
It's given me a community.
Some of my best
friends are actually,
I met them through bike riding.
Sorge, nice.
It's an outlet for being creative
and expressing myself.
It's like this weird time
machine where we're older
and there's a lot more
stuff going on in our lives.
It's fun.
But it's still same
feeling as it was back then.
It's a pretty cool relationship
with the machine.
Let's do this, ready?
Oh, my gosh, I think you're on it.
I think you're on it, go, go, go, go!
Yeah!
No way! Yeah, Shy!
Poor old granddad
I laughed at all his words
I thought he was a bitter man
He spoke of women's ways
They'll trap you,
Then they use you
Before you even know
For love is blind and
You're far too kind
Don't ever let it show
I wish that I knew
What I know now
When I was younger
I wish that I knew
What I know now
And I think it was off camera
when I remember telling Towana.
Towana went like,
"Dude, after this documentary, man,
you're never gonna see me."
And here we are shooting the
mountain bike segment.
We made these stickers #IrideforPaul
after his accident.
And then we put a little amendment
with the X over it that
said, "I ride with Paul."
Yeah, enjoy those
moments with your friends.
This lifestyle,
this competitive side of things
does not last forever.
So, if you walk in
and help those other people,
and maybe another day
winning is not everything.
It's about enjoying those moments
with your best friends.
When you want her lips
You get a cheek
Makes you wonder where you are
If you want some more
And she's fast asleep
Then she's twinkling with the stars
Poor young grandson
There's nothing I can say
What do you think, bud?
And that's the hardest way
Ooh-la-la
Ooh-la-la, la-la, yeah
All right, in the fish tank,
in the creek.
-Looks really sick though.
I wish that I knew
What I know now
When I was younger
I wish that I knew
What I know now
2005 taking over the world!
When I was stronger
Can we go together?
Heck yeah!
Come on, Kelly, follow the trail with me.
See you later.
