Two
brothers who have never gotten along both decide to go
to Colorado and participate in the most difficult bike
race in the country. But a shadow hangs over them: their
father died of an aneurysm and it is likely that one of
them will be prone to the same ailment.
Kevin Costner and David Marshall Grant
star as two estranged brothers driven apart by the
untimely death of their father. Marcus (Costner), the
older brother, is a renegade bicycle racer and doctor
who returns to his family home and discovers that David
(Grant) may suffer from cerebral aneurysms, the same
ailment that killed their father. In an effort to
discover the truth about David and mend their failing
relationship, Marcus brings his brother home with him to
Wisconsin, where he works at a state-of-the-art sports
medicine facility. The two brothers, although quite
different, share the love of bicycle racing, and decide
to go to Colorado to participate in "Hell of the
West," the most difficult bike race in the country.
As they undergo the grueling journey, they mend old
wounds and realize the importance of family, before it
is too late. Director John Badham's film features
spectacular racing footage, including fast-paced rides
along spine-tingling drops in the Colorado wilderness.
