In part two of our three part conversation with UltraRomance (the world's foremost bike packer, er "luxury cyclotourist") we discuss the forthcoming film, California Golde.

Shot entirely on Kodak Super 8 film in California's Sierra National Forest, the movie chronicles a completely analog tour—with no digital devices, apps, or GPS. A window to a time before, as UltraRomance says, "we became cyborgs," it's a project he considers an "art film," blending the aesthetic of 70s surf movies with the modern-day popularity of off-road bike touring.

California Golde will premiere in March of 2019.
