Has interesting parts in it, but spends far too long mulling over plot points.

The worst thing in this series, and what did the show in for me personally, is the hand-wavey safety BS. The girls spent multiple episodes preparing to beat the cold, [[[spoilers ahead]]] then when their friend is hypothermic and in danger they just stick her soaking wet body on the front of their bike and expect us to believe a hot bath and a change of clothes will just magically solve the problem. The show writers have clearly never been hypothermic or known someone who had an experience being hypothermic in ... their lives.

The show forced the viewer to make the assumption that this girl was in the river long enough to be so cold as to be barely able to move, and is likely injured, yet at the same time wanted the viewer to just wave it all off and act like, naw, riding in the night in the middle of winter in the front of a bike in soaking wet clothes while already hypothermic isn't extremely dangerous, naw you're fine, just take a hot bath.

Then, they put an interesting part (cross country tour) at the the very end and only used one episode on it. Waste of my time.
