Created as his senior thesis project at the Kansas City Art Institute, Drew Linne’s animated short The Ride tells the true story of how he and his dad signed up and prepared for a 100 mile ride, and grew closer as a result. So, dad, wanna go for a ride?

Makes me think fondly of the rides I did with my dad. I credit him in many ways for making the sport accessible to me. Yesterday I took my three kids out riding bikes on a local trail and I can only hope they too catch the bug.

Thanks for the draft, Dad.
