A PRO TOOK MY FRIEND'S KOM. My Attempt at Revenge w/ Data + Friends Making Fun of Me for Commentary

[@otb4evr]

You *seriously* need to have them guys do all of the KOM commentary. They are hilarious...

[@rustyelder]

Fun vid - I hate that climb. Bring the guys back because they really take the video to the next level. Great stuff man.

[@finndegraaf2707]

Respect that you did it three times. I can't even imagine doing it once, let alone missing a turn twice and having to give it your all again on the third attempt. Respect!

[@LouieBaLLz]

So Phil can drop an electric bike AND a hybrid car. Damn, those are my cycling goals. Loved the video.

[@messi9991]

Just get some juice and you're sorted.

[@LifeCycle1978]

@@messi9991 here we go again. Some random dude claiming an athlete is doping because they can’t do it.

[@messi9991]

@@LifeCycle1978 Gaimon isn't an athlete. He is a retired pro who does KZbin.

[@LifeCycle1978]

@@messi9991 You don’t consider him an athlete because he is retired? Any point you were trying to make in your original comment became irrelevant with your latest remark. Guy may be retired but there is no doubt he is an athlete.

[@messi9991]

@@LifeCycle1978 not because he is retired per se, but because he isn't competing. Because by your logic I too am an athlete. Anyone who does sports is an athlete by that logic.

[@MarvinWestmaas]

As a Dutch guy it makes me feel warm and fuzzy to hear people put MvdP on such a pedestal!

[@melj646]

Please have your friends come back and do more commentary

[@rocco.mbb.zoccoli]

Exactly what I was thinking 🤣😂🤣

[@escsniper]

That Palomar Mountain KOM is calling to you: "Phil ... Phil!!! ... PHIL!!!!!! ... Come take me!!!!"

[@JasonAGregg]

Thanks!

[@steveadp]

Phil, you are a beast! Pretty amazed at the output you can achieve with that gradient. Humbling to a 52 year old who rides a peloton exclusively at present on the east coast.

[@edwindeuning2922]

Always fun to watch Phil, keep going buddy!!!

[@AndrewBrown-em3ti]

Great effort, as always. Chris Horner watch out, those guys are full of next level insight.

[@thart6103]

What a cool vid! I loved it 😍 Congrats on the KOM 🏆

[@christianhuber4054]

You were flying bro, like that just looked fast af. Well done

[@3lukes]

loved the ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ! We need more commentary from them :D

[@Desi365]

That was a brutal effort, really. Won't blame you for not pushing until the end after the misshap.

[@JoseLCiclista]

“It was close enough to clench” 💀

[@michaelstoecker4178]

Wow - tough climb, made tougher by all the turns. Nice vid.

[@newtonbeats1212]

I want more of this commentary......

[@samj1185]

Fun stuff. Phil climbs a lot faster than I do....a LOT faster.

[@jmw2224]

Lionel Sanders approves of this KOM. 😂

[@stevesnailfish]

Always worth a watch.....

[@damu6678]

Please add in drone footage of these as well!

[@lachlanearnshaw6859]

how do you get the power stats into that kind of graphic ?

[@Protoman888]

ahh well, it's tough racing on the aul strava

[@ProfessorSteez]

Man, your friends are really supportive of you KOMing. I guess that makes them wingmen 🤣

[@theoriginalrecycler]

Shockingly impressive effort

[@justittude1524]

Wow, i was seeing the gradient and cringing, if i may ask, what gear ratios do you use Phil, id want to have such high cadence at a 17% gradient climb.

[@williambolduc3826]

The ratios are call mega watts

[@markhaneklaus282]

Please what about Phils body (and bike fit) meassurements. Seems he is pretty tall (like myself). Am about 6 feet 4 inch and here in europe there are no Factor frames for my hight available. Can anybody tell me about it ?

[@worstretirementever]

I’m 6’1 and ride a 56

[@jessejamesv]

Of coure you got it. He's a triathlete.

[@laydsimba]

I’ve never seen a car get dropped like that. 😂 sheesh

[@changpal]

That's awesome Phil

[@davidweisz3338]

I guess in this case it means King of the Maze?

[@daniels.2720]

1:50 minutes in & I like these guys already... Haha

[@paulguyot9318]

I think you need to pitch Netflix the comedy series: Muhney & Foster Driving in Other People's Cars.

[@sandrochiavaroBeerCircles]

My wife old car almost died on Grand view😂

[@robertdiez3091]

WVA is coming for it next just after the tour

[@gamby16a]

The profanity was fantastic! Super fun video. Congrats on avenging your bro, too. 🤘🤘

[@utube7930]

I wonder how many wrong turns Cam took?

[@WegrennerX]

Purple orange yellow clothing and helmet?

[@ChrisCapoccia]

A little surprised your buddies ran out of stuff to say. Next time they'll have to remember some old funny story and tell some good "remember when Phil did" story

[@ucfnathan]

LMAO love the live commentary

[@nomadcarpenter8549]

The power you can produce is just disgusting...

[@evanmacdougall9715]

You don’t need to have them ride with you. Just have them do voice-over for all your future KOM videos. :)

[@bicivini]

Go Phil go!!

[@porsche45353]

i don't think mvp could keep up with you in this caind of terrain even if he is a beast

[@barmouthbridge8772]

you make great vids. it's ok to fail. don't over explain. it's fine. you're an incredible producer of cycling stuff for those who appreciate the ability you have. sometimes just go "I couldn't do it today. " we'll all still follow.

[@matthall901]

Worst Retirement Ever! Yes

[@acanfield87]

What's up with the @CookieSwirlC logo in the garage? My girls are big fans!

[@C80TM]

Just bike bros hanging out

[@joerenner8334]

Those boys are funny AF! Lol! Great vid!

[@joshbingaman2334]

Juicy

[@marcj8464]

Hey sweet it's Sheriff Lamb from Veronica Mars!

[@thereeder5rs]

Classic!

[@Wardawg-]

Gaimon: KOM STEALER! 🤬

[@esgee3829]

is mumblecore cycling a genre?

[@JonnyPink65]

As someone who rides those hills ALL THE TIME, Grandview is childs play compared to Valley View. at 22%. Come in to Fernwood off of Topanga and and at the first left hand hairpin turn, ..... go right. I can not climb like you do these days having broken my hips two years ago, but Grandview is NOTHING compared to Valley View....... 22% for a 1/4 mile with no let up......... way more of a challenge.

[@gregbyrne7725]

What's not to like? Good stuff PG.

[@collectivesartori]

Those commentators need to do the tour, next 😂

[@sickboyrari708]

Gang

[@14erclimber]

This is like watching an episode of bevis and butthead.

[@atletafebema]

MVdP watts!

[@agtwil2863]

Jeez. I didn't realize what kind of power Phil was producing up those climbs. I always assumed his 'everyday man persona' from the videos translated into something closer to weekend warrior power. Not MvdP numbers...

[@worstretirementever]

I was pro for 10 years and won over 50 races. It’s still in there once in awhile

[@winstoncat6785]

Until you got to the bit where you actually got the KOM it sounded like a Vegan cyclist excuse-athon. Well done, anyway. But look where you're going hey?!

[@robertlowe7950]

best video for me ...love your friends...please include your friends or your wife

[@robertreyes1449]

LOL That was funny. haha

[@senseiquickbooks4588]

Booo no video on your actual KOM attempt? BS

[@bicyclestreet1]

couldn't listen to the stupid commentary I'll look for the next one

[@worstretirementever]

Just never watch anything I do again please

[@larrylem3582]

This is the correct Strava activity with the KOM (third attempt) www.strava.com/activities/7271669712/segments/2969336898931533814 On the video, he missed a turn very early, should have stayed left and turned onto Obervation Dr. On the second attempt, he was supposed to stay left and turn onto Croydon Ln.
