As the storied Stagecoach 400 bikepacking event approaches its 15th edition in Southern California this spring, filmmaker Gregg Dunham is teasing a five-part documentary series and seeking community funding to help complete post-production. Watch the trailer and back the project here…

Following a monumental effort to capture and share the story of the iconic Stagecoach 400 bikepacking event in California, filmmaker Gregg Dunham just released the official trailer for an upcoming five-part documentary series about the 15-year-old bikepacking challenge. Tracking riders through the Southern California mountains, desert, and coast, he filmed the event from an intimate perspective, offering an inside look at the highs, the doubts, the bad decisions, and the moments when everything starts to unravel.

The official trailer above paints a vivid picture of why the Stagecoach 400 is still important 15 years into its history. Filming is all wrapped, but to get the series across the finish line and publish it this spring, Gregg is looking to the bikepacking community to help him fund the post-production phase of the documentary, including editing, sound design, custom music, and color finishing.
