Check out a few words below from Christian Schauf who put everything he had into making this happen along with the trailer… Then download the video! It’s worth it!

“There has been a lot of interest around Bikes Over Baghdad in the action sports world, but only a select group of people were able to take part in this amazing experience until now.

Bikes over Baghdad was a tour comprised of a team of a dozen action sports heros and legends. The team traveled to the Middle East seven separate times with each tour roughly two weeks in length, facing extreme conditions, mortar rounds, IED’s, injury, exhaustion and more, but never missing a show.

Schedules were grueling, temperatures were brutal, enemy attacks were common, supplies and tools were marginal and failure was not an option. Travel restrictions meant everyone had multiple responsibilities, and there was little room for error. Not completing our mission would mean hundreds of troops go without entertainment.

There was no room for a film crew, but we all took small cameras and let them roll every chance we could, and little by little, after 6 separate tours and several months in Iraq, we realized we had a story that needed to be shared.

This isn’t a typical action sports video of guys doing insane tricks in remote locations (though it has that), this isn’t a story about the sacrifices our soldiers make day in and day out (though that is in there as well), and this isn’t the diary of an adventure a group of friends embarked on (though, again, there is that). What this is, is a story about what happens when people give for the good of others. When people put their own safety aside to make someone’s life a little better, and how selflessness can change lives.

This is Bikes Over Baghdad.” – Christian Schauf
