Overcoming Movie

fauxpas said:

OK, just watched Overcoming.

Top moofie but I must say, I'll never become a pro racer...

Skinny mummyfied body with capser white torso and upper arms? Aint gunna happen... 😄

I absolutely love this movie (but then again CSC is my favorite team 🙄 ) Does anybody have other suggestions of good cycling movies? (Preferably on DVD)

Thanks for the recommendations, fauxpas. I'll check them out. I just ordered 4 DVD's today.

• A documentary of Bjarne Riis and Basso (not "Overcoming" - this one will be released in 2 weeks in the UK)
  
• The Quest (About the 2003 Giro d'Italia)
  
• Eddy Merckx - Legends Of The Tour De France
  
• Lance Armstrong - 7 In A Row
  

So that will tie me over until the Tour starts! 😄

Definitely "Hell on Wheels" ... wonderful documentary of the 2003 T-Mobile team during the Tour. Every aspect brilliant. I enjoyed it more than the CSC doc, which left me a bit unsettled, and perhaps less a fan of CSC.

Where's a good place to order these movies? I know where to get Lance's, they're eveyrwhere... I mean the other ones?

Thanks,

John

Was looking at my local JB Hi-Fi and found Hell On Wheels in a bargain bin for $9.98 AUD [$8.00US]...

I enjoyed it much more than Overcoming... The spectators really made me laugh and also the bit when they all pulled over to take a [censored]... syncronised pee pee... :eek:
