Living a normal and somewhat boring life as a programmer in the States, Legge’s life changes drastically when he inherits his old family estate in Canada. It makes him realize that his life as a programmer is a dead-end life that needs to change mostly for the sake of his young son, who is being suffocated by the city life and long hours working.

He cannot ignore the thrill it gives him and in becoming a motorcyclist he meets some real island characters as well as discovered secrets of his family’s past…
