Ever dream of leaving behind the 9-5 grind and setting yourself a challenge to tell the grandkids? 'Riding the Biscuit Highway ' is the real life tale of three young men who did just that. Anthony,James and Martin set out from northern Alaska one summer on push bikes aiming to reach Tierra del Fuego, some 15,000 miles away.It would prove far tougher than they could ever imagine. After only a few thousand miles the physical and mental stress begins to take its toll.With sickness,injury,guns and the on-set of madness still to negotiate,will the mindblowing inescapable friction of each other and the never-ending white line be too much to handle or will they find the strength necessary to reach the southern most town in the world?
