Outskirts: Route 66

2018 · 82 min · Documentary

Outskirts: Route 66 is a no holds barred account of an extraordinary journey along the length of the iconic American highway. Once known as the High Street of America, much has changed on Route 66. The road itself has become outdated, while the nation it transects stands at a crossroads. Shot from the hip, the film follows four cyclists as they ride the 4,000 kilometres from Chicago to Los Angeles and documents every moment of their adventure, the roads they ride and the people they meet. Outskirts: Route 66 is the first in a series of films chronicling epic adventures along the world’s most famous roads.

It was Lachlan Morton’s greatest feat of endurance yet. Last September, Lachy set a new Around Australia Record, riding 14,200-kilometers around his home country in just 30 days, nine hours, and 59 minutes. That’s more than 460 kilometers per day, every day, for a month. Lachy’s brother Gus was there with him for the ride, filming all of his pre-dawn starts, the lonely time trials down outback highways, headwinds, tailwinds, gas station meals, and all of the people who Lachlan met along the way. The Great Southern Country, our film about Lachlan's Around Australia Record, presented by Cannondale and POC, is a story of endurance, how great challenges bring people together. And it is a story about Australia in all of its rugged beauty.
