At 4am November 2, 2007, a Nevada County band called the Ginger Ninjas made camp on the Yuba River. They had bicycled all of five miles to get there and still had 4000-some to go on their quest to ride and perform their way to southern Mexico, carrying all their instruments and a pedal powered sound system, evangelizing the simple bicycle as a world changer. In a chance encounter in Baja they met a filmmaker who left his life to follow them. He would spend the next four years making their movie.
