Whatever the LA Times says about this "inspirational" generic type movie and maybe there are some of these out there, I thought I'd pass on the word.

It's opened, maybe today? I see it is in a theater nearby. I'm not really into motorbike racing but we'll see.

See this interview, apparently, Rangers have ridden some of these bikes over there:
