- Big thanks to tenerifebiketr... Check them out if you're planning a trip!
The final leg of the Worst Honeymoon Ever Tour lands in Tenerife! Hosted by the local tour guides Tenerife Bike Training, Phil and Emily enjoy some great rides, foods company, and vacation--aside from the 7000-foot climb that Phil faces up the volcano. He chases the times of Chris Froome and team Ineos, who first popularized Tenerife as a pro cyclist altitude training destination.

Umm . . . I'm pretty sure that percent gradient is the same in the metric as in the English system. It's just vertical distance over horizontal distance -- doesn't matter what units you're measuring in (as long as they're the same!).
Exactly
Pretty sure it was a joke
Joke (flys over head)
you see you measure it in as an angle in metric radians. 1 is a full rotation around a circle.
Okay, bad trig joke sorry.
It's Phil humour.
I did part of my astrophysics degree at the top of Teide for a few weeks and the air really does get thin up there. Just climbing stairs can get you out of breath. Amazing location.
Haha nerd alert!!!
Pretty respectful effort for a honeymooner! Congrats!
One of the best things about Tenerife is how patient and courteous drivers are to cyclists. I've been there for a total of 6 weeks over the past year and I've never had a driver honk or pass me in an irritated way. That's especially notable considering the curvy roads with short sight lines for passing. I believe the drivers are as courteous as anywhere else in the world I have ridden.
Totally agree. Certain areas of Tenerife are busy with cars but they are so courteous and patient with cyclists. Drivers always give you lots of space and time. It is such a beautiful island.
Same experience. At first I was wondering why cars weren't overtaking me. Then I realised they were just waiting to make sure they could give me plenty of space. So much to love about riding there, but that is definitely up there.
Man, your referencing of Froome's times on these climbs really puts in perspective just how on fire the guy used to be pre-crash.
I had the pleasure of riding Mount Teide guided by Alberto, one of my best days on a bike!
Really enjoy all your videos, but "Worst Honeymoon Ever" has to be your best work. Thanks for taking us all along on this adventure. And here's wishing you and Emily a lifetime of laughs and happiness together.
What a great guy Phil and Emily are, that sense of humour is much warranted 😍
The "Honeymoon" videos were great Phil!
I used to ride with Delgado brothers in Tenerife ( pavement & gravel ). The view is so spectacular. What a great memory.
I rode up Teide last week for the first time and had the thought whilst going up, ‘I’d like to see how Phil Gaimon would tackle this’ you read my mind Phil
Can vouch for Tenerife Bike Training. Great group and the paella and riding is amazing. Highly recommend booking with these guys
for comparison, it took me, a mere mortal almost 4 hours to do the same climb. And I probably suffered more!
Ehhh my bike was lighter :)
Fantastic! I went in Tenerife in Octobre 2022, climbed Teide twice but the climb you made i made it full downhill, more fun! Grande! Cheers from Italy
Loved the series sir! Your KOM attempts are inspirational for amateurs (like me) to get out more! I like your sense of humor as well!
Thanks Emily and Phil for taking me along on a great trip. Added to my places to visit for cycling. Girona in June is booked 🤗🚴🏽
Enjoy!
Thanks a lot, Phil, for the excellent videos you share with us. I will definitely put Tenerife on my „places to visit“ list. Wish both you and Emily good luck!
Thank you!
Great series all round. Good to see some European scenery and more of Emily on the channel.
Also a popular training location for pro windsurfers.
Though clarification should state windsurfers train at El Medano, not on TF-38
3:48 I think you mean latitude, not longitude. Looks beautiful in the spring!
I enjoyed my time on your honeymoon. Thanks for allowing me to tag along 😃
I know you crushed the KOM on Mauna Kea, cause I tried it last month and pulled the plug at the Visitor's Center and saw your name on all the Strava segments (you finished riding to the summit, back to the visitor's center before I was able to get to the visitor's center). A couple questions: 1. did you make a video (I've looked but not found it)?; 2. why did you choose the Waikoloa Beach start and not the Hilo start? 3. (not a question) Congrats! Looks like an amazing honeymoon, thanks for bringing us all along with you two!
Great few videos there guys….. a very special trip in more ways than one as I can see👌🏻😍 disappointed you didn’t come to 🇮🇪 for some Everesting training with Ronan AND some of our black stuff …….. Guinness 🤔🤔😀
Some of these classic road bike locations have some great looking gravel rides!
Tenerife is paradise cycling, 🤔🤔🤔🤔 uuummmmm!!!, no, IS A FANTASTIC PARADISE!!!!!!
Vídeo 👌👌👌
My island is fantastic 😢😢😢
There's big Dylan van Baarle again. #2 to Froome which I assume both worked together on the climb. And that was back in 2019. I think he is stronger today. He definitely can win a classic this spring. You are still up there, Phil, great job.
Money on Dylan for another monument for sure
This brings back priceless momories. Thanks
I love riding in Europe, the people are so cool as was your chill zone!
@7:46 Phil, submit your GoPro mount to “GCN Hack/Bodge of the Week”
What a ride. Great time Phil!
You should consider a DJI Osmo Action 3. I record over an hour and a half 4K 60 with it.
6 place on KoM isn't to be sniffed at👍😎. I've done Teide from Los Gigantes and it's bloody hard😢
Emily reppin the Flies! 🙌
Going for the KOM over your honeymoon? I don't think Rocky's coach Mickey would approve... _"EMILY!!"_
Nice series, and congrats!
Thanks!
Phil, you need to do a video together with Illi Gardner where you guys crack jokes and crush climbs! :)
I live in North Carolina, and the Shelby riff was pretty damned funny...!
Ha the Clevelanders were not impressed with this gag on the previous episode. Shelby looks nice
@@worstretirementever Almost too close to Charlotte; not close enough to Greenville, South Carolina. Really enjoy your exploits, thanks.
I kind of want to ride bikes with Phil, but also kind of want to go to the chill zone with Emily.
10:52 look at me and my buddy descending haha
15:08 15:31 gotta love those transitions... :D
emily give us a tour of the chill zone / house !

Instead of Teide it would have been interesting to see you go after the Masca kom on Tenerife. That climb is really hard but I'd imagine the leaderboard isn't as stacked as Teide.
Next video :)
Holy shit, Emily has unnaturally long fingers. 😯
Is this the way up that Remco just took the record off Mr Froome ?
Phil when you gonna ride Mauna Kea
Same latitude as Orlando
6th at Tenerife is bad Axx Fill
cookies, cookie!!!
to be a goofball is to live
% gradient is imperial now, won't be taking questions
I need to take a honeymoon for myself. I can just claim my partner decided not to come along.
Honneymoon... sweaty yes... but horrible and torturous?
Fuelled yet held back by cheese and wine. ;)
what a stud
I hit like number 999! ha ha ha
I'm dizzy.
I think you might have the best wife
The best one for me anyway
