If you’ve had the pleasure of watching any of the Thereabouts films, you’ll know the inspiration for what makes them tick; getting out on the bike with good friends, amplified by crazy massive distances, in places that seem less than ideal or even hospitable for cycling.

Outskirts takes Gus Morton’s latest crew across America on the famed Route 66, sometimes next to it and other times nowhere near it. As with the previous trips, it borders on insanity and the nigh impossible, punctuated by moments of beauty, despair, wonder and bafflement. Probably the best made yet, it’ll make you want to get out of your own comfort zone, but maybe not as far as this.
