Best Day Ever follows the stories of adaptive mountain bikers Greg Durso and Allie Bianchi as they navigate the relentless challenges of their disabilities and embrace the tremendous support, friendship, and joy they find in their rural Vermont riding community. Allie and Greg navigate disability and regain independence with humor, attitude, and grit on mountain bike trails that dismantle ableism, build community, and become a blueprint for trails anywhere.
Berne Broudy is a journalist, filmmaker, and trail volunteer whose work breaks boundaries—physical, cultural, and societal. A lifelong adventurer and storyteller, she brings a deep connection to the outdoors and a fierce commitment to social justice.
Based in Vermont, Berne is the co-founder and president of Richmond Mountain Trails, the grassroots organization behind the world’s first fully adaptive mountain bike trail network. As a visionary and coordinator for the Driving Range trail system, she helped raise over $350,000 and mobilize more than 200 volunteers. She also moved rocks, flagged trail, and grilled more than 2,000 hot dogs for volunteers.
Berne also currently serves on the boards of Vermont Huts and Trails and the Vermont Mountain Bike Association, and is fundraising to help trail clubs across the U.S. expand access to adaptive recreation. An avid rider and backcountry skier, she spends as much time as possible outdoors, challenging limits—and reimagining what's possible.
