Synopsis

Ex-professional cyclist Simon Richardson has raced road, cyclocross, and mountain bikes for years - but the world of ultra racing is totally new to him. Jumping in at the deep end, Si takes part in the 400-mile ultra race ‘Further East’ - a gruelling mixed terrain course around the East of England. Racers will embark on a totally self supported gravel route that takes in the Cambridge levels and the Norfolk Broads. They’ll be expected to continue to race non-stop through the night if they want to win. What will an ultra rookie make of this unknown challenge? Will the threat of marauding cows and losing his mind to James Blunt lyrics waylay his effort? This gritty, sometimes comical, always compelling film will follow a total novice as he delves into the world of ultra cycle racing for the first time.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 2

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
