got and email saying that 50% of my purchase goes to Livestrong. And I wasn't excited about it in the least

What a disappointing movie

did they think to get an enduro bike and camera to to follow parts so we could see some of the course and witness at least one climb? Or was it better to have that fat guy talking about nothing from the front seat of his car and following average cyclists around every stop and go looking for granola bars and complaining that there was no vegan food available? ?

I saw it at a private screening in Philadelphia. While the race itself is a magnificent spectacle, the documentary itself was a C+ at best. The ending was such a let down, and then it was over...No build up or anything, it just stopped, and had absolutely no closure.

And now that 50% of funds go to Livestrong..(smh)
