Why We Ride
DocumentaryFamily89 min
Famous racers, longtime riders, and whole families talk about what keeps them coming back to two wheels in this portrait of motorcycle culture. Through interviews and riding footage, the film moves from speed and competition to the rituals, friendships, and family traditions built around the machines themselves. Racing figures like Kenny Roberts and Valentino Rossi appear alongside everyday enthusiasts, widening the focus beyond the track to the people who build their lives around riding. Across generations, it shows how motorcycles become part of memory, identity, and family tradition.
