THE IMPOSSIBLE ROUTE

Can some of the toughest overland routes imagined be tackled by bike? Jeremiah Bishop and Tyler Pearce are determined to find out.

ANSWERING THE QUESTION

Everyone has their own "Impossible Route"—whether it be climbing a volcano or completing a single mile for the first time.

The Impossible Route documentary series captures the adventure of attempting a task that might have been previously considered "impossible."

From Death Valley's lowest point to Colorado's highest peak, through Appalachia's long-forgotten pathways, and beyond Montana's most-remote regions, we seek to find out: Are these routes possible to ride on a bicycle?
