This week on the podcast we watched RAD from 1986, starring Talia Shire and Lori Loughlin. The film’s story focuses on Cru Jones, a young BMX racer, who lives in a small town with his mother and sister. Cru is faced with a tough life changing decision: the qualifying races for Helltrack are the same day as his SATs, which he must take in order to attend college! However, winning Helltrack means a lucrative sponsorship deal and instant fame. Cru chooses the latter option, ignoring his mother’s wishes. Along the way he meets Christian, who he immediately falls in love with after they have an EPIC bike dance off. This movie is full of bike montages, ass sliding montages, training montages, and more montages! If you love BMX, the 80’s, and montages, then this is the movie for you. Do you have what it takes to be RAD?
