(Anthony grunting)

(gentle music continues)

- If you don't like something in your behaviour

and you try to suppress it, that's what I did.

So I tried to suppress anger.

I tried to suppress many other things,

but anger was a big one.

I remember, during a session with a therapist, I was like,

"Something's wrong with me when I go ride bikes now.

Like, I have nothing. I feel nothing.

Like, I have no adrenaline. I'm not stoked.

I'm not happy. I'm not scared.

I have no fear. I have nothing.

(bike clicks)

Yesterday, I was supposed to go do the maintenance.

[Gordie] Yeah.

With my friend.

[Gordie] Mhm.

- But he cancelled because he broke his arm maybe.

Like, he's getting an X-ray right now.

[Gordie] Oh, (beep). Okay.

So, I'm like, oh, okay.

That's why I did it. That's why I did it yesterday.

[Gordie] Yeah.

Myself.

(bike part whirring)

Oh, you know what?

It doesn't move. (peaceful music)

[Gordie] It's a miracle.

[Anthony] Oh, let's go ride.

♪ Testify these thoughts of mine ♪

♪ Can't tell a lot from my stupid mind ♪

♪ Don't know if it's a crisis or a beautiful sign ♪

♪ Looking for a little bit of peace of mind ♪

(mellow alternative music)

♪ Well, my hands are in the river ♪

♪ And my eyes are closed ♪

♪ Everybody dies, everybody knows ♪

♪ Well, looking at the stars makes the time go slow ♪

♪ And the night sky told me how to let it go ♪

(mellow alternative music)

♪ Yeah, the night sky told me how to let it go ♪

I think I'm getting stoked on doing it.

I reached the mental state where I'm like,

it's gonna be a fun ride,

and not... I never thought it would be a suffer-fest.

So that's good. I (beep) wanna get it done, man.

Yeah, I'm Anthony. I'm French, from France.

I learned that, in Canada, I have to say it.

(Anthony chuckles)

So I'm from France,

and I've lived in Canada for almost nine years now,

and I moved here because of biking.

[Gordie] What's the Triple Crown?

So, are you familiar with something called the Triple Crown?

Yes.

It's three mountains, I guess.

What's the Triple Crown?

The Triple Crown is (beep) three mountains

that are in my mind all the (beep) time

that I've climbed in every (beep) possible way.

- [Gordie] Can you tell me what the Triple Crown is?

This is my best guess.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Triple Crown is

climbing the kind of three main mountains

on the North Shore.

- Seymour, Grouse or Fromme, however you want to call it,

and then Cypress, and basically the whole idea is

to summit all three of those in one day.

It can be done on a road bike, mountain bike.

There's kind of different ways of doing it.

- If you live in Vancouver, North Vancouver,

there are three mountains,

and there is water on each side of the mountains.

Basically, what we call the Triple Crown is

you start at the water

and you go up the three mountains, up and down,

and you arrive on the other side at the water.

- [Gordie] Have you done a Triple Crown before?

I've made it as far as a Double Crown,

doing Seymour and Fromme in one day,

but I broke my wheel in half.

- No, but it's on my to-do list now that I live here.

One day, I'll try it.

[Gordie] Yeah.

I gotta, one day.

[Gordie] And what do you think it takes

to do a Triple Crown?

Lots of snacks.

(biker chuckles)

[Gordie] Pretty physically demanding.

- Pretty physically demanding, but I think, you know,

there's rewards for mountain bikers

to really push themselves

and to see what their bodies can actually do.

- I see everyone, you know, on social media,

Strava, or whatever, they were all doing Triple Crowns,

and I didn't know what it was,

but I said, because I'm not fit on a mountain bike,

and I don't know if I can make it and I don't road bike,

and I don't know which one to choose.

So I said, I'm gonna do both back to back,

and then we'll see which one I prefer

and which one I can do.

(gentle music) (birds chirping)

And I finished it. It wasn't that easy.

And that was the start, yes.

At this time, there was no meaning for me.

It was just, can I do it?

Well, I'm not a road biker,

so everyone was like, you're not a roadie.

Like, why did you do it on a roadie?

And I'm like, yeah, you're right.

So, next year, I will do it with just a mountain bike,

and so I did the double,

like what I call the double triple,

so two Triple Crowns in a row.

So I started on Cypress, and when I arrived on Grouse,

Grouse, I hike-a-biked BCMC,

so I hike-a-biked my bike for like 950 metres elevation,

and a friend joined me for that hike-a-bike,

and he was like, "Oh, so you're gonna do it twice?"

And I was like, "No, I do it once and then I come back

so I don't have to do the hike-a-bike again."

"Oh, you only do it once."

And I still remember that "only" in my head.

that was like, it's my second mountain out of six,

and I was already like, well, that's weird.

He thinks it's not enough?

Once I finished the double, I was completely wasted.

Honestly, I was just like, done.

Like, I finished barely.

It was not pretty to see, but, already, at that time,

I had the "only" in my mind. I was like, okay,

so we'll see.

[Gordie] How would you feel about

doing three Triple Crowns?

(bikers softly chuckle)

In a day?

That would require a couple of stops

to some breweries along the way.

[Gordie] Three Triple Crowns

- in a row. - Wow.

That's wild. I'm not sure if I've ever even thought of that.

- [Gordie] What do you think it would take to do that,

like physically, mentally?

- I mean, just a really strong want to do it.

That's key for anything, right?

And the will to not want to give up.

- I think of all of the ones I've done, like physically,

the triple triple was the hardest,

but, mentally, I think it was not the easiest,

but like the one I had much more mental game for it,

as, like, not strong mentally.

At this time of my life, it was not the case.

It was the opposite,

but more mentally on, like, I'm gonna do it.

I'm (beep) gonna do it and I have to do it

and I have to finish this one

because it will bring something for me

that I was looking for.

(solemn music) (birds chirping)

Like, this time was like a really bad year.

Well, everything just fell apart,

and, like, some stuff around me,

some private things, some personal things, and all together,

just like mentally was not great, because I was, like,

not in a good space at all.

Like, I was definitely thinking that I was a failure,

and I couldn't see anything positive at all at this time.

Like, to make it short, I was thinking,

if I can make that triple triple,

that will show me at least that I'm not a complete failure,

and then it will help me to just, like, get back at it.

(solemn music) (birds chirping)

That was, for me, like hitting the bottom bottom,

and just be like, okay, well, let's take it as a step up.

I could see it as kind of like

a shifting point, turning point,

and sometimes when I was feeling (beep) again,

I was thinking, like, well, okay, you've done this.

Maybe I can work on myself and just, like,

do what I need to do

and have a little bit of compassion

or understanding or whatever about me,

but, yeah, just try to.

It helped. Like, it didn't do everything.

I was not waiting on it and being like, oh, that's magical,

and now I feel fine.

No, it still took a lot of work,

and a lot of many things around.

Wow, this year's ride. (lively music)

I still don't know if I consider it bigger or not bigger

than triple triple.

I think it's bigger, but, this time,

I'm gonna start in Squamish.

Go up Diamond Head, ride down.

We're gonna take a boat and go to Britannia Beach.

From Britannia Beach, I'm gonna ride up

and ride down some trails,

back to the boat, all the way to the Sunshine Coast,

and I will go all the way to the top of Mount Elphinstone.

I will ride down, go to Bowen, the top of Gardner,

ride down, and take a ferry this time,

and I will arrive to Horseshoe Bay.

From Horseshoe Bay, I will do

what I call the reverse Triple Crown.

So, Cypress, down, Grouse, down.

Then I will go up Seymour. Ride down some fun trails.

I will ride over the Second Narrows bridge,

and I will go to SFU Burnaby Mountain,

and then I will go to Port Moody to ride Eagle Mountain,

ride down, and then go to Coquitlam and ride Burke,

and ride down, and then I want to go back to Port Moody,

riding my bike to Port Moody to finish at the water.

(lively music)

I'm not planning on sleeping anywhere.

I'm maybe gonna have a 10-minute nap here and there.

Like, my goal is to do, it's one ride. It's just one ride.

So, you just, like, start, ride, and that's it.

If I go do one mountain and sleep

and one mountain and sleep, yeah, no,

because then I don't really see it as a challenge anymore.

For me, I have to do it,

I have to finish it, because if not,

I don't really see the goal of it, let's say.

Like, it's a project that I want to finish,

and I'll do it until it's finished.

I don't think I'm gonna feel, like,

more depressed or anything if I don't finish it.

Like, I mean, that's a route that's, like, not simple.

So I also have to be like, come on.

Like, I have to be a bit more gentle on myself,

and be, like, not beating myself down on this one,

but, if I had the idea of it, that means that I can do it.

(Anthony indistinctly murmurs)

I can't wait to leave because then that means that's it.

There's nothing else that I can take.

I need those notes, and I need this.

This is to remember when I need to take food and water.

This is how stupid I'm gonna be.

More stupid and more stupid.

Training for hike-a-bike.

(birds chirping) (traffic distantly rumbling)

- Our nervous systems are designed for long periods of rest

and short periods of stress,

and so for an athlete to put themselves

through something like this, it flips that upside down.

It's going through a super long period of stress

and probably not having enough rest, and so there's gonna be

cognitive deficits, emotional deficits,

and so we have to be wise, especially mountain biking,

with our, you know, route selection, our line choice.

Yeah, you know,

and how to manage big feelings along the way.

You're gonna come out of that with some deep wounds,

but also a depth of learning that some people don't know

or haven't made contact with, and, again,

it's that sort of spiritual side of sport in a way.

(gentle music) (bike pump whooshing)

(gentle music continues) (birds chirping)

(gentle music continues)

Okay, and the jacket.

(gentle music continues)

You ready to go?

Yeah.

Okay, we can go. Let's go.

Finally. See ya.

(crowd shouting over each other)

(sombre music)

(sombre music continues)

(sombre music continues)

(sombre music continues)

(sombre music continues)

(car rumbles)

(crickets chirping)

(tyre air hissing)

(exciting music)

Well, see ya.

[Jonathan] See ya later, alligator.

(exciting music continues)

(exciting music continues)

(exciting music continues)

- Woo! - Yeah!

(exciting music continues)

(Anthony laughs)

- [Gordie] Fun trails on the first one down?

- Yeah, man. - Yeah.

- That was pretty fun. - That was fun.

Yeah. We made it fun.

[Gordie] Where are we headed to next?

- To the boat, and then we go to Squamish to take the boat,

and then we go to Britannia.

That's gonna be sketchy at night.

I don't even want to think about it.

[Jonathan] It'll be okay.

Let's head down.

[Gordie] Cool. You guys go ahead.

[Anthony] Yeah, you're gonna catch us?

[Gordie] We'll catch up.

- [Anthony] I don't think so, man. We're (beep) fast.

(group chuckles)

(traffic rumbling)

Dude, it's narrow.

No.

[Trevor] Oh, yeah.

[Anthony] Yeah.

[Trevor] You wanna come on board

and you can handle it from here?

[Anthony] Yeah.

- [Trevor] Yeah. Okay, boys, have a good night.

(boat whirring)

- [Anthony] For me, it was more adventurous,

and more, like, new to take a boat and link all of this.

I definitely didn't want to take a car any time,

and the boat felt like it's okay.

For me, I don't put it in, like, the cheating mode.

I don't have to take a car to go

from somewhere to somewhere,

where the boat is like, well, you kind of have to.

(boat whirring) (crew indistinctly muttering)

[Trevor] All right.

Yeah, yeah.

Okay?

Yeah.

All right.

[Jonathan] All right

See you in a bit, man.

Okay, guys. Have a good one.

(Anthony distantly speaking in French)

He's just finished up the first.

He's finished up Diamond Head

and he's now going up Britannia,

which he's doing without the film crew,

which was his decision.

He is with Jonathan, his friend who did Squamish with him,

and he is gonna do some GoPro filming,

but they're gonna keep it pretty fast.

- (exciting music) - Arriba, arriba, arriba!

(exciting music continues)

(Anthony chuckles)

(Johnathan indistinctly murmurs)

Pandora. Nice.

It's my new favourite.

[Anthony] It's fun, man. It's so pretty.

Woo!

[Anthony] Yeah!

(Anthony speaks in French)

- [Johnathan] It's gonna be interesting in the dark.

Dude, how? You go in the middle?

- I would go right. - I would go left.

[Anthony] Don't explode at the bottom

because I'm gonna be right behind.

(exciting music)

[Johnathan] Nice!

[Anthony] Yeah!

[Jonathan] Sick!

(crickets chirping)

Yo. That was good.

It was sick.

- Pretty good trails. By night, that's different.

It was pretty awesome.

Yeah. Britannia by night, man.

High five!

That's pretty good.

That's pretty good. Check.

- That's definitely a high five. Check, check, check.

Two done. Eight more.

(bike whirring)

(waves gently crashing)

[Trevor] Okay. We're off.

- [Gordie] When people ask you why you do these rides,

what's the answer that you give them?

- [Anthony] The fastest one, why not? Yeah, why not?

Why not doing it?

Because, many people, they don't really want to know

that much more, to be honest, and so, yeah, why not?

Why not? Why not trying and see if you can do it?

I don't know what's the limit.

I don't know what's possible. I have no idea.

[Gordie] Is that, like, an easy answer

to give, though, do you think, for you?

[Anthony] It's an easy answer for them,

not an easy answer for me,

because there's no easy answer, I think.

[Mike] It looks like a long ways.

No.

Yeah, maybe.

(group chuckles)

(gentle music) (seagulls squawking)

Here we go, gentlemen.

(group indistinctly murmuring)

Let's say, I don't think we're gonna make it

in less than five hours.

You know what?

I'll be back in under five hours, just chilling out,

so, okay, no problem.

(birds chirping) (group distantly speaking)

(birds continue chirping) (group distantly speaking)

(birds continue chirping)

(birds continue chirping) (group distantly speaking)

(birds continue chirping)

(birds continue chirping) (Anthony panting)

- I have 10 hours to finish this and do Bowen,

which, yeah, it will do.

(birds chirping) (bikes whirring)

(birds continue chirping)

That's it.

Yes, man. Good one.

It's not just about riding bikes anymore. There's more.

I mean, there is a physical aspect. Like, what's my limit?

Like, if you go ride your bike and you just, like,

go do what you do all the time,

you will not know what's your limit.

I'm pretty sure some people think that their limit is this.

I'm pretty sure their limit is this,

but if you don't try or push, you will not know.

Okay. See you soon.

Ciao!

- Have fun. - See ya.

Enjoy the ride.

[Anthony] Oh, yeah.

(gentle music)

(Anthony cheers)

(Anthony cheering)

(Anthony grunting) (gentle music continues)

Oh!

(Anthony speaks in French)

Hi.

(gentle music continues) (boat whirring)

(group indistinctly murmuring)

Hey. Come here.

I think you're just getting warmed up.

- Yeah, thank you, man. - Okay?

- Yeah, for sure. - All right, come on.

Make it good! Make it good!

Yeah, I will. Thanks a lot, man.

That was fun! That was fun!

Careful there!

I do not have enough space for anything.

I didn't sleep for...

Man, it's hard to do the math

when you don't sleep for 29 hours.

Yeah, 29 hours. Yeah.

It seems like I'm not gonna sleep again

for another, like, 12.

(Anthony snorts)

[Sylvain] Yeah.

I feel like everything moves, man.

I'm still like, there's waves.

Like, there is waves, but I'm, like, on the ground.

I'm not even halfway. Woo!

[Brendan] At the moment, it's fun.

[Anthony] Huh?

[Brendan] At the moment, it's fun.

[Anthony] Yeah.

(birds chirping)

(Anthony chuckles)

I think now he's stoked!

(group distantly speaking)

The key is to just throw your bike.

It's not bad.

I think it's pretty easy.

[Sylvain] Yeah, you think so?

Yeah.

So, now, it's been like,

I don't know, like, 16 and...

Yeah, dude.

(Anthony chuckles)

- Never again. - Good job.

(Anthony chuckles)

Dude, you did amazing.

I had one at 3 p.m.

I remember, I checked and was like,

oh, this is the second one at 4:30, like...

(group distantly speaking)

This is where it starts, eh?

Left.

Left, down there?

Right there.

See ya! (exciting music)

(exciting music continues)

(exciting music continues)

(exciting music continues)

(exciting music continues) (Anthony laughs)

(exciting music continues)

[Rider] Woo!

- [Zac] He had estimated that he would get there 5:30.

There was a 5:10 ferry that he'd miss.

Then the next one is 6:15.

They're usually an hour apart,

but then there's like an hour and a half jump.

It goes 6:15 to 8:50, so that will put him

a little behind schedule if he doesn't make it,

and based off where they are, it'll be tight.

(phone ringing)

(Anthony indistinctly speaks)

Yo.

[Anthony] Yeah?

[Gordie] Hey, man.

- [Anthony] We're riding down and we're going to the ferry.

- Okay. Do you know that you have to get to the 6:15?

[Sylvain] Eh...what time is it?

[Anthony] 6:15?

6:15.

- [Anthony] Okay. Maybe we'll make it then.

Okay, I'm sorry to call you,

but we just realised that it goes 6:15,

then the next one's not 'til 8:50.

I just didn't know if you're-

[Anthony] 8:50? We have to go, guys.

We have to go.

- Yeah. Tell Scott to stop shooting and just go.

[Anthony] Yeah. We're going down.

Okay.

(Gordie sighs)

[Zac] I guess they're gonna hustle.

(exciting music)

I think he's just getting off the mountain here

at Green Road to Mount Gardner Road,

all the way into Snug Cove.

I don't think he's too far.

(exciting music continues)

(exciting music continues)

(sea gulls squawking) (crowd faintly chattering)

Done. Four mountains, for now.

Squamish is done. Britannia is done.

Sunshine Coast, Elphinstone is done, and Bowen is done.

So now we go in home turf.

(Anthony chuckles)

(ferry whirring)

(sea gulls squawk)

(crowd chattering)

(Sylvain speaks in French)

Oh, thank you. Thanks a lot.

Thanks a lot, man.

[Brendan] Thanks, buddy. That was great.

[Anthony] That was (beep) awesome.

[Brendan] Good job.

All right.

- See you in a bit, man. - I'll catch you in a sec.

- [Anthony] I'm sure. - [Gordie] I'm sure.

[Anthony] Woo! Hey, thanks again, man!

- You know, one thing about Anthony I do give him credit for

is he is very self-reflective.

When he continued to see kind of things in his life implode,

he himself came to the realisation that, okay,

now it's probably time for me to actually,

to see what's going on and to implement some form of change,

and then, also, I just think, naturally,

just through maturity, so as time has gone on,

and through his own personal experiences,

he realised that he needed to do something.

Just getting on the bike,

mentally going through all those different mountains,

you know, you have to persevere.

You're gonna go through those struggles,

but the euphoria that you will feel at the end, again,

it will provide that clarity

of all the struggles that you went through,

so I think that's where there's, again,

it's a good example of what he himself has gone through.

(gentle music) (birds chirping)

(bird squawking)

(crickets chirping)

(crickets continue chirping) (Anthony humming)

Yeah!

(crickets continue chirping) (Anthony sighs)

Only 10:30.

(crickets continue chirping)

(Anthony whistles)

Food, drink, bike.

Repeat.

(crickets chirping)

(crickets continue chirping) (bike whirring)

Yew!

Yeah, boy! Whoa!

(crickets continue chirping)

(Anthony yawns)

Is it morning or is it night for me?

(Anthony grunts)

(crickets continue chirping)

(Anthony groans)

More foam. It's gonna be different.

(crickets continue chirping)

(crickets continue chirping)

(Anthony groaning)

(crickets continue chirping)

150.

Woo. Don't close your eyes.

(crickets continue chirping)

(solemn music)

(solemn music continues)

(solemn music continues) (Anthony sighs)

Oh, man.

This is not easy.

I think the no sleep is not the right thing.

I should have slept somewhere.

I slept like 10 minutes or so on the ferry.

Maybe 15. I don't even know.

(Anthony sighs)

I still feel like I'm in the boat.

How are you gonna feel if I take a 15-minute nap?

[Matt] Oh, we'll take one with you.

[Zac] Yeah, you're good, dude.

- [Jarrad] Yeah. You do what you need to do.

(solemn music) (crickets chirping)

That's perfect.

Timer, 15 minutes.

[Phone] 15 minutes counting down.

Go, go, go, go, go.

(Anthony sighs) (solemn music)

(alarm ringing)

(Anthony sighs)

I think I slept about, like, two and a half seconds.

(group chuckles)

When that thing rang,

the alarm, I was like, where the (beep) I am?

- Like- - Everything was pitch black.

- Oh, man, I was like, oh, (beep), I'm home,

and I'm like, oh, no.

Oh, no, you're not home. Wow.

This is

crazy what you can imagine doing, no?

Slightly better.

I don't know for how long, but...

(gentle music)

So, like, what's the point?

I had the same thought last year.

Like, well, I'm not gonna give up, because if I give up,

I'm stupid enough to try again next week.

Then that means that the six mountains I just did

are just useless.

It's much, much easier to go take your bike

and go pedal for two days, for me,

than going to talk to someone and be open

and be like, hey, here is the word that I'm gonna use

that many people don't want to hear,

and it's not that they don't want to hear,

but you feel like we don't talk about it that much.

We don't know if we can talk about it that much.

I think, since last year, I used it with some friends,

but, like, the word "depression" is not a word

that you hear a lot from other people, not a lot from guys.

Almost not at all from guys riding bikes, dirt bikes,

or those kinds of sports.

I mean, I was in that mindset before.

I was like, I don't wanna talk about your problems.

I don't wanna talk about mine,

so I don't want to talk about yours either.

I didn't even know how to.

I avoided it. I didn't know I needed it.

I was not talking at all to anyone about anything at all.

(bikes whirring) (crickets chirping)

I mean, I think that's why I was riding that much.

Every time before, I would just take my bike and just go,

and that's easier for me to just, like,

take my bike and go and ride instead of, like, open a book,

read about not life, but, like, yeah, kind of,

and understand a bit more about, if you feel (beep),

to try to understand why,

and not just, like, take your bike and go have fun.

It works, it's amazing, but every time I was coming back,

I was still the same.

So then I have to go ride again and I come back

and it's the same, then I go ride again

and come back and it's the same,

and I think after all these years,

I just, like, did this and just, like, that's me.

Just, like, at some point, it just doesn't work anymore.

(bike whirring) (birds chirping)

(birds continue chirping)

(gentle music)

I don't want to say I'm grateful, but, in a way,

I still have to take some positive

from all the negative I got and I did and everything.

So, yes, I think I'm getting there. I'm not fixed.

I'm not done. There's much more.

I mean, this, for me, it's just like,

I mean, I still think it's a little step.

It's a big one, but it's a little step.

(gentle music)

You're doing great.

I can't believe it. You look good too.

- Still going. - Thanks.

Yes. Nice work.

You want a kiss?

[Blaise] He smells amazing.

(car horn honks)

Have fun.

Whoa!

That's how you have fun

when you do a (beep) tonne of mountains, man.

You have to find some games.

That's how I learned how to do those tricks.

(gentle music)

(group distantly speaking)

(group distantly speaking)

Dude, this was, like, everything for me?

- Yes, then what you don't eat, we're gonna eat.

- This is insane. Oh, you're gonna all eat.

- [Blaise] We'll help you eat. I'm glad I came now.

Yeah, exactly.

I'm enjoying this.

- This will be your long break for the day.

Ready?

Oh, yeah, guys.

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues) (traffic rumbling)

You can see this, you can see this one,

this one, and this one.

All right. Let's get it done!

(gentle music continues)

(gentle music continues)

(gentle music continues)

- Mountain biking, indeed, is a form of moving meditation.

As we talked about earlier,

finding that flow state where there is no stress,

it's quite a joy to feel and it's one of the reasons why

we swing a leg over the bike the next day, right?

Is we wanna find that feeling again,

and, yet, that pendulum can swing the other way

and it can also be a form of numbing,

and so I think we all have to learn to recognise

when that's the case.

(bikes whirring)

(birds chirping)

(Anthony coughs)

All right.

[Erin] Okay, let us away!

Well, I don't know where we're going.

[Gordie] Still having fun?

Huh?

[Gordie] Still having fun?

Actually, I still didn't think that

I need to, like, stop it.

You know, I can stop it whenever I want,

but I'm like, no, it's cool.

I mean, like, the only thing that I'm not stoked about

is, like, I'm never gonna do it in 48 hours,

so I'm like, ah, (beep), but whatever.

[Alejandro] You know the way?

(gentle music)

- We come out the other side of events like this

changed in some way.

We appreciate our capabilities

and know that we can do hard things

and we might liken that to the next hard ride we go on

or we might liken that

to some challenge in our own personal lives.

Perhaps we prove something to ourselves a little bit

that gives us some empowerment

to take on the next hard thing.

(gentle music) (birds chirping)

You good?

[Alejandro] I'm good. I'm ready.

Camera's rolling.

[Anthony] All right. Let's go.

[Alejandro] Party mode on the bikes?

(bikes whirring)

(gentle music) (birds chirping)

Big roll?

Woo!

Yew!

We are at the base of Burke,

which is number 10, Anthony's final mountain.

He just did Eagle really, really, really fast,

which was sweet, so he's hauling.

He's got a good crew with him right now.

They're on their way here. They'll be not too long.

It's 7:15. Yeah, then we'll be pushing up one last mountain.

I think he's got a lot of fire in him.

Stoked. Excited.

(gentle music) (birds chirping)

[Erin] Yew! Number 10!

[Zac] Last one!

[Erin] Woo!

It's never the last one.

(group indistinctly murmurs)

- [Sylvain] This is when your brain is telling you...

(group distantly speaking)

[Erin] Yeah, Anthony!

(gentle music) (birds chirping)

(group distantly speaking)

This is the top, yeah?

[Anthony] Yeah, yeah.

- This is the Triple Crown. - Yeah, nice work.

[Sylvain] Nice, dude.

[Erin] Anthony, nice work.

- [Anthony] Thanks, but it's not done. It's not done.

[Alejandro] That's 10, Tony!

- [Anthony] Yeah, but you still need to ride down.

[Gordie] Excited?

Well, it's 10.

10 up. Now you need to do 10 down.

[Alejandro] Yew!

[Gordie] Yeah, dude.

[Sylvain] Yeah

Yeah, yeah.

[Erin] Hell yeah.

[Gordie] Number 10.

Yeah, yeah.

(group cheering) (gentle music)

(gentle music continues)

- It's like, if you wanna go ride your bike,

well, you need to fix your bike first

to make sure that you can ride it for a long time,

instead of, like, go see if it will work or not,

and maybe, maybe, maybe not.

So, to me, it's kind of the same.

Like, I kind of, like, try to get some tools with me

and then continue now in life and to make it a bit better.

I don't know if it makes sense.

(group cheers) (gentle music continues)

I mean, like, if I was able to go talk to a counsellor,

a therapist, and open books, and listen to podcasts,

if I was able to do it, I hope that talking about it

and showing it to others,

maybe it will help them to be like,

yeah, okay, I'll try also myself.

(bike whirring) (gentle music continues)

(gentle music continues)

Like, the only thing I wanna talk about now

and I want to link it to is mental health,

because we're not talking about it at all.

Like, at all. I would say at all.

Like, it's starting, but it's really not much, but, like,

I think the more we talk about it

and the more we share things like that,

the more it will hopefully help people

to be aware of that, like, for themselves and for others.

(group distantly chattering)

This year, I just kept it super positive

because I was stoked on doing this project.

Like, I mean, it means something to me

to do this big project, and it's not at all about,

hey, look what I can do.

It's more like the message I'm trying to share,

and people were super positive.

I had so much fun on this route. I loved it.

Like, the whole thing was, if I compare to last year,

this was much more fun, and much more meaningful.

Yeah, I'm glad I did this one, for sure.

Good job. There was people everywhere.

I'm proud of Anthony

bringing some awareness to mental health

and using this ride as a bit of a catalyst and platform

for not only himself and his own personal growth,

but for anyone else who happens to come across watching,

you know, this documentary,

or even just following him on social media or on Strava

and kind of seeing the premise behind the ride.

- It's not about, like, hey, ride your bike or anything,

but it's like set a goal.

It can be an impossible goal, but you can still aim for it,

and, one day, you'll be able to do it.

I mean, link 10 mountains.

Again, like, many years ago, you would tell me,

hey, do you wanna go ride 10 mountains this weekend?

No, I don't think I can do it, but set a goal for yourself.

It's great to, like, see a bit ahead

and see further and focus on something.

I saw this for myself, like this year.

It was great to have this goal in my mind

and do everything I could to reach it,

and it's not just about physically.

It's not, oh, let's go train or let's go run or whatever.

It's more like

your mind still needs to be really good doing this.

So, I can remove the mic or not?

- [Gordie] The only question I have. Did you have fun?

Oh, yeah. The whole time.

The whole time, except...

No. The whole time.

What's next?

Still continue working on myself

and working on, like, getting better mentally, for sure.

I mean, it's not even a next. It's a now.

The projects, man, those big rides, they come from me.

They don't come from someone else,

so I'm sure there will be something else.

I mean, I can say no, but a friend told me,

"We know there will be something,"

and I was like, "Yeah, I know."

Ew!

[Johnathan] Ew! Ew!

[Anthony] When you need more speed!

Just do this somehow and just eat it.

Mm.

Good times on bikes for sure.

[Scott] Yeah. It's a good day so far.

I don't know if making a film

is as hard as riding 10 mountain peaks, but it's exhausting.

My mental is "keep biking."

[Anthony] Yeah, but once I'm here,

I don't know what to do.

[Anthony] All right. Another one.

[Gordie] That's sick, dude.

Oh, no.
