The Rider and The Wolf is story of Mike Rust, one of six Irish brothers who fell in love with bicycles in Colorado. 'Mike the Bike' helped create the stoke for bikes in the rough mountain town of Crested Butte, leading to the sport called mountain biking. Some to try to claim that it all started in California, but Colorado is just as guilty. Mike Rust was inducted into the Mountain Bike Hall of Fame in 1991. He later moved to the remote San Luis Valley to pursue his dreams of sustainable living in the mountains. There, some men broke into his house one night and he chased them down. He has never been seen again.
