Die Sieger - American Flyers (1985)
Nach dem Tod des Vaters herrschen Spannungen in der Familie Sommers, vor allem zwischen den erwachsenen Brüdern Marcus, einem Arzt, und David, der sich für den Radsport begeistert. Trotzdem beschließen die beiden, gemeinsam an einem harten Radrennen teilzunehmen, das durch die Rocky Mountains in Colorado führt. Mit dem fiesen Muzzin haben sie einen Konkurrenten, der für den Sieg zu allem bereit ist, zumal Marcus nun mit seiner Ex verbandelt ist. Doch es kommt noch schlimmer: bei Marcus macht sich ein unheilbarer Gehirntumor bemerkbar.
