I’ve been talking about this for almost 2 years, this video needs no Introduction. Needless to say, aim for something, strategise and execute on it. Please enjoy this vlog!

UPDATE : On 18th Dec 2022, Tom Pidcock dethrones Ed Laverack on the magical Mallorca mountain setting a time of 22.46 with roughly 6.6wkg! The Ineos Grenadiers headed there with approx 10 riders during their training camp! The Pros showing us how it’s done! Put a smile on my face receiving that email!
More impressive rocking up with your missus and just doing it the day after landing like you did…. Vs 9 other riders, support team, nutritionists, physios etc etc.
Don’t play that down. As you say, it’s the best on your day, same it was everyone’s else’s best on their day. You rocked up and stole what has to be one of the most sought after KOMs on the planet. Imagine how many ppl will see your name on there, for years to come. That’s next level Ed, congrats. Well deserved.
Thank you!

Mat: for Years to Come
Tom Pidcock: Hold my Beer
Fantastic KOM ed. Well done! I reckon you can beat Wiggo's all time record next!!
Have the 22:30 ever been confirmed or is just an urban legend?
Sounds salty
@@LarsRR If Ed had 6.3W/kg, I am not sure if 6.7, 6.8 these top guys doing would be enough.
What a shitty backhanded compliment 😂
TUE or was was that way before Shane’s erectile dysfunction? 😊
The most humble cyclists around. Well deserved!
Thank you!
To have done this is huge…one of the biggest scalp’s in Strava to take! To have ridden there and back too when you could’ve just used pin point focus on the KOM and no one would’ve thought it any less of an achievement! Hope you get the recognition deserved by being able to do something that only the very top of the top has the ability to do.
Thank you!
0:45 that’s the difference between your uphill KOMs and my Downhill KOMs 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely sensational!! Not just the effort, achievement and the lead up to it; but your total modesty and humble approach to cycling and life. I’m actually astonished a UCI team hasn’t signed you as you are clearly a very inspirational young chap. We’re all too quick to applaud performance accomplishment but I’d personally like to applaud your unassuming and unpretentious attitude. A great role model for any aspiring youngster 👏👏👏
Thank you!
Massive Effort, ridiculous numbers 😂👌🏼🔥 I’ll be buzzing with double that time when we go 😂. Well done 🙌🏼
Congratulations Ed, was trying not to see anything on this to watch your video. Then on the club ride yesterday a lad told me 😤 thankfully your title would have give it away! 😂 amazing achievement 👏 chapeau 👏
Oh no haha!
That excitement when you get a KOM. God bless Strava
I had to prepare my cereal, blueberries, and muffin ahead of time so that I could sit down and devour every second of this epic video! World-leading KOM!!! So excited and proud of you… I’m not crying… it’s smoky in here….
Hehe! Thank you!
That is so cracked. Huge, huge achievement. The cycling world, will have always have an eye on you.
Ed's Epic Climbs! What an effort and amazing to see it all come together! Hope the Mallorca trip was worth it, but it sure seems like it!
Time well spent on the island :)
At the very moment you discover your EPIC achievement you are quick to acknowledge the efforts of guys who take twice as long to get up the climb. Top class cyclist and human being. 👏
Already congratulated, but to see the video... Darn mate... That was an epic performance.
Much love Marco, thank you!
Thanks for sharing your KOM ride Ed..I was back up it again today for the 2nd time in 4 days..my pb is 58.37..i was just glad to break the hour mark 😄
Well done Dave!! Always chasing that PB!
Some of my club were out for the 312 and also did the climb, around 4p minutes and then said this…. A classic climb well worth attempting when you’re out here. (KOM is 24 mins: 36 seconds…………Clearly by someone who is not human) - such an amazing job Ed,well done!
I’m certainly human but would never have done this 5 years ago!
Amazing ride Ed! Fully deserved 👊🏻
Thank you!
Great effort and result! Fun to see your nervousness before and while uploading. Epic Climbs by Ed Laverack powered by $Sponsor Name$. There must be some company watching and thinking its a good way to send you around the world! Especially after this massive KOM 👑
I'm always open to seeing what's possible! Thank you for your support Mick :)
Congratulations Ed, absolutely awesome mate you smashed it 👊
Thank you Ian!
Massive congrats Ed. Ya didn’t just beat it you thrashed it🥳🥳🥳
"Epic Ed-ventures" Well done Ed great achievement 👏
You say it was busy when you came back but couldn't that of helped you up the climb due to being able to get draft?
Love this one Michael!
if the other cyclists would go roughly at the same speed, then yes it would help with drafting and pacing, but as Ed would have just blown past them, they become more of an obstacle than help. He even said that cars could have slowed him down on the hairpins, which just goes to show what a machine he is and how fast he gets up there
That's the name! I think for the draft to have been a benefit I might have needed someone to ride 6.5-7wkg for the first 5-8minutes of the climb.
That's legendary status right there....Well done!
Wow. Amazing. Congratulations on such an amazing KOM. Great attitude and dedication.
Thank you!
Love it - & love the comment thread 😃👍Incredible achievement 🤩🌟
Amazing Ed! Chapeau
An absolute awesome effort, been a long time in the making, it's great travel has opened up so you can target these events this year, no easy feat beating a 6 year KOM 💪💪💪
Thank you!
Wow, fantastically amazing effort Ed - Ed rides the world!👍💪
Thank you!
Well done Ed, that was amazing👏👏👏
Congrats Ed, that's some effort. Looking forward to the triple Ventoux video as I'm off there in July to tackle that particular challenge myself.
Class & humility......fantastic Ed!
Thank you!
Not long back from this beautiful place. Anyone who has seen it and travelled it will be in awe of its beauty. Anyone who has cycled it will be very proud. You Sir are a Legend. A fantastic feat made to look easy. Very impressive indeed , well done and truly an inspiration to cyclists everywhere.
Highlight of this for me is you can tell once she finds out, Charlie is absolutely brimming with pride for you too but she stays professional for the sake of the footage 😂 congratulations again mate, the feel of speed going up hill on that video is crazy.
haha! Indeed Nick, she's the only one staying professional at moments like this!
Thanks for the inspiration, Ed. I did my first ride up Sa Calobra in September, and it was fabulous!!
Fantastic! Always love to hear how people enjoyed the Classic of Mallorca!
Incredible effort! Looking forward to the follow up. I'm a reasonably new subscriber but your channel is must watch for me now.
Having been in Mallorca only a few weeks ago, these videos are even better.
Awesome Richy!! Thank you for stopping by!
Chapeau Ed, well done !
Chapeau Ed - we were one of those peletons heading up the climb (we set off from Pollensa at 9am) - Huge Congratulations from all of us at Bath CC :-)
I must've seen you at one point!
Brilliant ride Ed!
Fantastic Ed! Congratulations again! 👍👍
Incredible mate! Like a machine.
Chapeau and well done Ed, great effort and great video!
Well Done Ed 💪 believe you were speaking with my friend Sal about the lack of coffee shops open at the Bottom of the climb at the un earthly time 😂
Early bird catches the worm
👏👏👏
Congratulations Ed. Look forward to the full video. "Epic Ed-levation Series".
Superb Ed!!!!
Ed’s epic adventure fantastic effort huge kudos 🚴♀️💪
Brilliant effort Ed. well done
Superb ride. 👏👏
Chapeau 👍🍻
Amazing Job Ed! Goosebumps watching :)
Solid WKG bro! Not many on the planet can do that. You should have ridden a race bike with 1000g tubs and really put the target harder to beat.
Hey durainrider 🖕
He used a disk brake bike, did you see that? What do you think of that DR?😉
@@michprent very dumb things no doubt
Congratulations Ed , fantastic time , smashed those pros 😱👍
Massive effort, well done Ed.
Ed,s epic koms challenge.
Well done Ed.
Well done Ed, fantastic achievement. Early start to avoid the buses !
Amazing- we have watched your 20min power grow & grow since the Covid break & this is one of the rewards. I am sure others will follow this year.
Thank you!
Phenomenal effort Ed you smashed well done buddy all us Welsh was behind you.
Chapeau Ed. 👏👏 Anyone who has ridden that infamous climb knows how hard you must have pushed.👍
Well done ED!!!. What an incredible achievement.
Brilliant well done 👏 👏👏👏
KOM Edventures....great effort, legend
You are far too humble, take this fpr what it is : absolute confirmation that you are absolutely world class.
Well done.
Thank you!
Well done Ed.. and you did it on your own. No lead out or team. 👍🔥🔥🔥
Unreal effort, Ed! Congratulations! You’ve trained exceptionally hard for this and it has paid off.
Thank you!
Incredible effort mate, chuffed for you and inspiring.
Thank you thank you!!
Ed! What an inspiration you are to one and all! That was quite simply awesome, da iawn!
That is massive! Congrats Ed
Astonishing and so humble too ! Awesome 👏
Fantastic job Ed! I did Sa calobra (solo) a few weeks ago and even early in the morning (thanks for the early start tip) there was such camaraderie among the cyclists along the climb and at the top. I chatted with a few younger English cyclists at the top and of course we talked about your recent heroic effort. I hope you keep that KOM for a long time. Don't worry, I won't be taking it from you any time soon !! 😂
😂thank you Conor!
UK's answer to Phil Gaimon! Huge effort, amazing segments!
Thank you!
Amazing effort,

Nice KOM for a genuinely nice guy. Thanks for inspiring me Ed. Congratulations.

Don't be so hard on yourself, this is an exceptional achievement!
Thank you!
Chapeau 💪🚴
Well done, Ed. Well-deserved result.
That's awesome Ed, congratulations!!!!!
Respect! Fair play
Congratulations Ed, that was some ride. Can’t wait to see the full video. Truly epic climb. Chapeau Sir.
Mate,
what a great achievement, you inspire without knowing it. if just one person views this video and just improves upon their own previous best or completes it for their first time, then surely, your hard work and effort, along with bags of talent, was worth it!
That's all I can hope for :)
Outstanding.
Wow! Brilliant Ed proud of you! 😆
Absolutely incredible effort. I was massively proud of my 36 minutes. Can't even imagine the pain....
We are all feeling the same pain😫
Da iwan Ed, great effort on that climb and the focus to get the KOM.
Massive watts 💪🏻😲 You've deserved the KOM. Congratulations! 👏🏻
Awesome Ed - well done on an epic ride mate! How about ‘Bucket List Climbs’ for your series. Keep up the great work. Paul. pS - I am one of those double your time Sa Calobra cyclists & yes it does hurt twice as much - Lol!!
Fantastic result Ed, need to do the Bealach Na ba in Wester Ross, similar stats approx 2100 feet at 6.8 % average. Highest road in the UK. Very well done again!
Great dun fell is the highest road in the UK.
That's absolutely insane riding, well deserved with all that structured training in the bag #EDMODE Bring it on 🤟
28s Ed, wow ... smashed it. 💪
Congratulations, what a fantastic story!
Well done Ed, I did most of the climb a few days before by accident. (Suspect Strava Route including goat trails). How the hell anyone can get up there that quick I’ll never know. Chapeau!
I was there pulling! Nice work
Congratulations Ed, definitely earned a Sub. Look forward to more of this content 👌
Thank you Craig!!
Absolutely phenomenal Ed! Years of hard work and sacrifice paying dividends. Well done on the 312 and Charlie on the 167 too. When I first heard the news at work, I got told off for over jubilant celebrations.
Haha! This is great to hear!
Amazing effort! 🎉 Sub 30 is an achievement in it self!! Congrats on KOM 👏🏻💫
