Iceland Challenge – eflow through ice and fire

Short Film

Short film: “Iceland Challenge – eflow through ice and fire” (8:17 mins + credits + outtakes)

Film Summary

For Midsummer 2013, the Pedelec Adventures team went on another pioneer trip on electric bikes. For this year’s journey, the Pedelec Adventures team chose Iceland – a country that has been shaped by ice and fire, wind and water, long nights in summer and short days in winter. Traveling between glaciers and hot springs, the bike enthusiasts faced the Nordic elements on speed-pedelecs from the eflow brand. In urban Reykjavík, on remote gravel roads in the North-West Fjords and in the rough terrain of the highlands with its rivers and lava desert, the team challenged the bikes’ all-round talent. This short film documents this unique journey, the challenges they faced and the beautiful surroundings of the Icelandic countryside.

We have also an extended documentary version (approx. 23 mins), which is shown at trade shows, film festivals and other events.
