Adrenalin Ride
When a former Sam's Adventure Tour guide invites Jake and Peter to help develop a downhill-mountain bicycling trail for his new adventure company, the boys can't believe their good fortune. Hardly have the mountains enveloped the trio, though, when the boys begin to question their host's true motives for this wild ride, and when he disappears, they're plunged into the mountain-bicycling descent of their lives. Sign on for a third adrenalin-pumping extreme sports adventure with Jake and Peter!
