The Pre-Election Outreach Phase for the film is over and was - in our opinions - a success. The film screened in over 45 locations in 14 states wrapping up at the Portland Gay & Lesbian Film Festival. Eventhough, same-sex marriage took a big kick in the ass on November 2nd, dialogue, debate, education and outreach needs to continue.

Carrie & Elisia along with all the couples and families we met along the ride still have little or no protections. On the federal level, Bush has pledged to use his "politcal capital" to help pass the Federal Marriage Amendment. Who knows...in Ohio and Georgia it may be possible to take adopted children and partner healthcare benefits away from same-sex couples.

The final version of the film, Lesbian Grandmothers From Mars, is currently being re-edited and will premiere sometime in the Summer of 2005. Copies of A Time To Ride are still available on DVD and VHS. To order click here.

This past summer, married lesbian grandmothers Carrie and Elisia Ross-Stone rode their bicycles over 3,100 miles across America to raise awareness and get support for equal civil marriage rights. Through 14 states and over nearly 9 weeks, they received a wide range of responses – from enthusiastic support to death threats and hateful protests.

A Time to Ride is an 87 minute film that is a source of inspiration and awareness for the gay and lesbian community.  More importantly, it is a valuable tool to inform a much larger general public whose political and social support is vital to gaining equal civil marriage rights.

Amidst the gay marriage media frenzy and election year politics, A Time To Ride, documents one American couple's struggle for justice and equality, highlighting individuals and families they meet from coast to coast. It illustrates why voting this year is more important than ever.  Find out more
