Blood Road – COTA Movie Night @ McMenamins
July 13, 2017 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm
$5Join us as we get ready for the High Cascade 100 Mountain Bike Race by welcoming HC100 veteran Rebecca Rusch, and her epic film – Blood Road, to COTA Movie Night!
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.
