One man and his home built chopper motorcycle competes in an illegal, cross country road race known as The Stampede. His 2-wheeled machine is an ugly, unpopular style of chopper with no frills, chrome or shocks; running hard from west to east as fast as possible, without stopping. Middle age is approaching, his life has taken a dramatic turn lately with his wife divorcing him, children scattering, a new younger Girlfriend and a Mistress that fills his mind. Time in the saddle, running on his own road is just what he needs to figure it all out, or leave it in the wind. Winner takes all in this adventure as he and his competitors fight to the finish while this true story unfolds on the open roads, highways and interstates of America. Finding his own road in life will prove to be one of the hardest tasks a man could ever conquer if, he and his old chopped motorcycle can survive some 3,000 miles to the finish line.
