People ask me why I love cycling, this film communicates it perfectly. Brilliant!
The feelling when you're at the top of a mountain is unbelievable.
Climbing a mountain in your bike while you smile is incredible.
Thanks Rapha for sharing your passion.
We don't suffer in our bikes.
We dream.
We just smile.
Rapha always deliver on the cinematography front, but this one stood out for me....I like to climb, the pure rhythm of being out of the saddle and ‘sashaying’ side 2 side gets me into a zone I can never really explain. Top film Rapha!
Thanks a lot!
Congratulations to the filmmakers, majestic work!
Beautiful short and beautiful story... inspiring.
"everything that keeps me in the present moment is an asset" so true
One more time Rapha hit the target!What to say for this beautiful video no commnents just enjoy watching...
Magestique !! I love to when I hear ," the mountain is not a trophy" Chapeau mon brave! Bien fait
Beautiful insight! I think of this video on my hard climbs at times. Thanks Phil Deeker. By far, one of the best short films by Rapha.
Phil Deeker, perfect gent and such an inspiration. Chapeau! Luke, Tour de Force 2013
"Rhythm of the road" -the true enjoyment of riding.
So beautiful way to advise your brand. This really inspire people! Greatly done!
While the cinematography is stunning (as usual) it's the way it's built into the story that truly makes it stand out. I loved the lonely long shots and the scenery that whizzes past. Subtle yet beautiful..I wish you guys would talk on how you think for these films and share some of your processes and ideas.
Masterpiece - beautiful and inspiring. Thank you!
Beautifully shot!
Pure inspiration, love the film
Stunning video. Loved it.
This is beautiful!
Right! Beautiful to hear this outside of my own head: You cannot conquer a mountain. No human can. It is a mountain. It is enormous. It exists in a time-scale far beyond our own. Therefore, any claim of conquest a human states is a futile gesture towards a mountain, since we humans are merely witnesses of moments of their great existence.
Fulfilment... I want to add: Experiencing the mountains presence is a majestic experience that fills my heart and touches my soul. That, to me, is fulfilling - I very much agree.
B.t.w., where the heck do the first couple of sentences come from? Sounds like something unreal from a distant, old soul.
(this is very poetic Mr. Deeker. Not even the product placement was able to take that away ;)
Love the cafe de Colombia hat. Great short film

Did Phil do them all in Spain?
Hi, you can find out more about Phil's journey here: pages.rapha.cc/feature/the-ride-of-a-thousand-cols
Beautiful short film. No excuses now for me to take train instead of the bicycle this morning because I’m a little tired.....
Rapha films make me want to ride my bike… and speak with a British accent.
Wooowww
What is a col?
A passage from a valley to a valley across mountains.
@@EternalInfusion So a col is a road that goes over a mountain? Connecting two valleys?
@@TheFujiwuji yes basically the most efficient path between two valleys separated by mountains
I want to join your club😣🔥
Loved the imagery and the narrative. You've captured some really stunning visuals! And an essential part most cyclists would've never imagined to like at the beginning of their passion.
That said: What really threw me out of the beautiful story told was a sudden visual transition. Protagonist goes from a realistic, physically non-perfect older cyclist riding with normal guys I can imagine to be his actual cycling companions and peers - to suddenly being surrounded by and riding with a bunch of handsome fitness male models 30 years his junior! That was jarring and seemed disingenuous. And totally unnecessary imo

Café de Colombia
POES BOOOORING!!!
Don't mean to be rude but I honestly feel that this is 6 minutes of pretentious drivel - just get on your bike and get on with it, mate.
a real nonsense
Another MAMIL. But a fit one though.
