Blood Road Film Night at Marin Museum of Bicycling
Date: Thursday, September 15, 2022
Time: Doors Open at 6:15pm and Show Starts at 7:00pm
Join us for a special film night with Rebecca Rusch in-person. A benefit for Rebecca’s “Be Good” Foundation. An indoor film in the museum’s main gallery!
Released in 2017 with Red Bull Media House, Emmy award winning Blood Road follows the journey of ultra-endurance mountain bike athlete Rebecca Rusch and her Vietnamese riding partner, Huyen Nguyen, as they pedal 1,200 miles along the infamous Ho Chi Minh Trail through the dense jungles of Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. Their goal: to reach the crash site and final resting place of Rebecca’s father, a U.S. Air Force pilot shot down over Laos some 40 years earlier. During this poignant voyage of self discovery, the women push their bodies to the limit while learning more about the historic ‘Blood Road’ they’re pedaling and how the Vietnam War shaped their lives in different ways. This deeply personal quest to find her father coupled with his guiding words ‘be good’ ultimately became the genesis for a global mission; a call to action for all who desire to live with purpose, explore with passion, and create lasting change. Rebecca’s Be Good™ Foundation, a 501c3 committed to enriching communities using the bicycle as a catalyst for healing, empowerment and evolution, was officially founded in 2019.
Experience the museum’s magnificent collection of bikes and our new and expanded gallery space. Otis Guy, Hall of Fame pioneer will be your host and MC. Q&A with Rebecca Rusch to follow.
