I signed up for Idaho’s Smoke ’n’ Fire 400 on a bit of a whim. After a fair bit of cold rain and two hours’ sleep in a pit toilet, I rolled back into Boise with a win and a course record.
Once I started talking to the other riders, I realised we’d all set off on the same route and come away with completely different stories. That’s the bit I wanted to make a film about.
