THE GRAND RIDE
Filmed throughout the summer of 2024, The Grand Ride follows local Grand Rapids rider Patrick Ellis as he carves his way through West Michigan’s best mountain bike trails. From the punchy climbs of Richmond Park to the fast flow of The Underground and the lush loops of The Bike Park this film is a love letter to the region’s growing trail network and tight-knit riding community.
More than just a showcase of technical skill, The Grand Ride captures Patrick’s deep connection to the land, the culture of Grand Rapids riders, and the rhythm of a summer spent chasing perfect lines!
