Two Steps Forward, One Step Back | Ultra Cycling Across Europe in the Transcontinental Race

Two Steps Forward, One Step Back is a story about movement, resilience, and what it means to keep going when the road doesn’t unfold the way you planned. Through the lens of ultra-endurance cycling, where riders cover thousands of kilometers across countries, mountains, and sleepless nights. The film follows Cynthia Carson as she navigates two years marked by unpredictable turns: canceled races, crashes, mechanicals, and the relentless demands of the Transcontinental Race across Europe. Each obstacle could have been the end, but instead became part of the journey. This is more than a film about sport. It is a reflection of life itself. How goals shift, setbacks arrive without warning, and progress rarely comes in a straight line. Two Steps Forward, One Step Back reminds us that momentum is built not by avoiding obstacles, but by finding the courage to move through them, one step, or pedal stroke, at a time. ____________________________________________________________ Buy me a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/wattwagon Follow me on instagram: / watt_wagon If you have any video suggestions, please share in the comments below!
