Riding in the Eye of the Storm

Riding in the time of COVID-19 has become a welcome release for many from the stresses of life. Tristan Deggan spent some time in the woods with Jay Boysen to capture that feeling.

I wanted to express the stress I felt when Covid came close to home. The distant threat of the spread seemed like it would never effect us, but when it did I felt so privileged to have a sport to escape the downpour of awful global news and local anxieties. I am sure that riding has come as a necessity for many, but I still hope this film can inspire some to disconnect even for a ride, and to appreciate this very special sport during these times.
