Angel on my Handlebars

Angel on My Handlebars chronicles the unbelievable journey of a 67-year-old untrained bicyclist as she pedals 3,622 miles across America in her short shorts and Hanes Pantyhose on a bicycle with a fuzzy seat cover. Despite wind, rain, heat, hail and a crash, she inspires all to never give up. The love story behind Patricia, a Swedish cornhusker from Nebraska, and Gabriel, her 20-year-younger handsome, charismatic, Hispanic husband is compelling as he initially refuses to support her on this crazy adventure, but then becomes totally entwined to become her personal angel.  As the challenges across this expansive country develop, so does an alcohol problem. Angel is full of hope and heartbreak from the exhilaration of pedaling over the Rockies at almost 10,000 feet, to having their beloved van, The Love Machine, stolen in Canada. They were anticipating the next stop at romantic Niagara Falls. Patricia was eagerly awaiting this personal highlight with Gabriel, whom she lovingly refers to as her stud muffin.
