    I love this movie. I think it's from the late 70's and was one of those sleeper movies. Less popular than it should have been. Focus is bicycle racing.

    The nursing home I work in has a movie of the day that runs continuous for the day and this movie was one of my suggestions. I caught parts of it while at work. I need to buy the DVD. I haven't watched it in years.

    Anyone else like this movie? Or heard of it?

    Yes, saw it a number of times. Loved the parts where the kid thinks he's an Italian.:)

    I know. I love the parents also. The part where the dad is taking a potential customer for a test run in the care and it stalls because his son cut in front of him on the bike. It's a priceless scene.
