Bruce Cook and Christian Bagg have spent many years facilitating adrenaline adventures for other people with disabilities. Whether racing on top of mountains or bungee jumping off the highest bridge in British Columbia, they know no fear and no boundaries.
Just when Bruce thought his freestyle motocross career was coming to an end, he is presented with an opportunity that could change his life; for better or worse.
Christian has spent the 25 years since his injury, both dreaming of an adventure and innovating the bike to fulfill it, and it’s finally ready.
What will happen when two people whose passion lies in helping others, get an opportunity to do something remarkable for themselves?
Bruce Cook, a stunt motocross rider who is disabled, wants to help others with disabilities enjoy life’s possibilities with unique innovations that he and his friend, Christian, create. Bruce has been depressed since COVID shut down most activities, which in turn has given him a lot of time to think about the reality of the injuries he sustained 8 years ago. When given an opportunity to make a remote lake lodge more accessible for those with disabilities he jumps at the chance. Working with his friend, Christian, who has been in a wheelchair for 25 years, Bruce learns about perseverance. He also learns valuable lessons from people who are also struggling with the results of a disability which over the course of the season will allow Bruce to gain more insight into who he is at his core and what his abilities really are. He learns more about himself, his spirit and his tenacity than he’s ever imagined.
