I love the running commentary when you are riding! Gypsum is used in drywall.
Ha thank you! I love it when the comments deliver
True story…I shit you not: when Lance Armstrong was visiting Vegas about 20 years ago to see Cheryl Crow perform at the Andre Agassi “Grand Slam” charity concert, he rode the Red Rock circuit on the advice of a local. Being a National Monument (not a National Park), there is an entry gate. Not knowing that there is just a simple, one-way circuit, Armstrong stopped to ask the gate attendant where to go. The gate attendant kindly informed him of the route, but not knowing who he was, the attendant also made sure to advise him to be careful because it was a difficult climb. 🤦🏻♂️
I met Didi the Devil at Phitsanaluk airport in Thailand after a L’Etape event in December. The hat was on all flight, the trident folded in his bag.
Gypsum is a soft sulfate mineral composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate, with the chemical formula CaSO4·2H2O.[4] It is widely mined and is used as a fertilizer and as the main constituent in many forms of plaster, blackboard or sidewalk chalk, and drywall.
Wiki copy?
@@DanielSweden Considering he copied the reference index, I'm going with yes 😂
Loved the Shining references 🖤
And also all this random ramblings, strange animals, and a trip to Vegas remind me of the Sopranos' episode "Kennedy and Heide" episode where Tony went to Vegas for a psychedelic trip 😃
Binge watching your videos have helped me finally get back on the bike. Thanks for the entertainment, stay safe and happy rides!
Phil as the local legend of the red rock climb.. you're insane for going for it into that headwind 😂.
Ha bowing down to you, sir!
Definitely a source of intel for that next KOM attempt. I've been there a couple of times and assumed it was windy there all the time.
Beyond drywall Gypsum also used to break up and soften hard dry dirt to be useabl for planting
That hotel corridor is very like The Shining. "Come ride with us Danny, forever, and ever, and ever..."
James Piccoli has Montreal's famous Camillien-Houde KOM and its unbeatable. He is intense.
Awesome to see El Diablo and Schleck. Both legends imo. Phil also on his way to legendary status! 😄
Incredible, I’m happy enough to crawl uphill with my big belly
Red Rock is a wonderful place. I've done a ton of rock climbing there and also shot in 2 national championships at the shooting range just across the highway...so many trips to Vegas and I don't even gamble;-)
Good experience, awesome Video , great riding with you 🤙💯
Gypsum is a major component in drywall.
It was great to meet you at the book signing (the book is awesome, by the way)! I wanted to invite you to Central New York to try out some of the crazy hills we have available but I was a little star struck and could only get out "big fan, love your channel". I get the redrum reference from your book, way better than the penises and explicit stuff my friends used to draw on the mirrors!
Gypsum is used mostly in plaster and drywall. For houses.
Did l’etape and stayed at the same hotel, one floor lower. The wind the day before was killer, but very little wind during the actual event.
Good job on the Shining references!
Great shots of those socks!🥰
I think Phil just coined a new word: "windependent"
Phil come get the KOM climbing up the Timberline Lodge (The ski resort in Mt. Hood used for The Shining exterior shots)
Guillermo from Uruguay, que grande! Just call him "Guille"
Just to make you jealous Phil, I encountered a large turtle (not a tortoise) on the road during a recent ride in the countryside west of Petaluma CA. (s)he was a big one with a 10" shell. I moved him off to the side of the road and relative safety. A very cool encounter!
Hero!
All KOM's and no cookies makes Phil a dull boy.
Didi Senft " The Tour Devil " still joins a lot of Races after all these decades ! He was in Germany on the 1st of May in Frankurt on the steepest climb in the race !😊❤
They make dry wall with gypsum phil :)
I have a reputation with a regular riding partner for always stopping to move turtles off the road or trail. It’s become a thing he harasses me about but I hear he did it for a turtle recently when I wasn’t around. Must be catching.
I stopped the car a few days ago for a massive (2’ plus, including the tail) snapping turtle on the shoulder of an interstate on-ramp. Couldn’t figure out how to move the thing, it was so large. Was truly afraid of loosing a finger or two in the process.
In the past month, I bought a Talon rack from SeaSucker, some Chamois buttr, and a Orucase seat bag. I already own a some blackbibs.
Thanks! All good stuff I’m sure you’ll enjoy
Should ride this with floydd landis. 😀
Wishing favourable conditions for your next event 😱 ⛏️⛏️⛏️
lol Remco's fiancé.
So wish you'd Strava'd the hotel \m/
Great camera work, even better excuses.
For the record it’s Red Rock (singular)
Are you sure? 😉
@@joshuahoover Fancy meeting you here 😁
I don't know about L'Etape but I have been in a Sur la Table.
Phil..Finally I have done a ride you have also been on...Red Rock Canyon...Guy said to me when I started that day..."you know its 7 miles up"..whaaaaat?..Great, and glad to have done it. Also did River mountain trails loop in Henderson, 35 miles paved off road course, which I did also. There I met a guy who had stuff hanging out the back of his saddle....his tent or something I found out....I asked him...have you been to RR canyon.... His reply...yup, I just cycled from there....Feeling insufficient enough, I asked another question of him...so what is with all the stuff then on your bike...reply...I'm training for Trans America...I at that point metaphorically threw my bike away..I tracked him, he completed the thing, and placed very well...Phil, love your joy of cycling...Vegas, never a dull moment, just dull headaches by over consuming ...I used to work for a company called British Gypsum .....way back as a 17 year old in Glasgow, Scotland...It is an ingredient that goes into the manufacture of drywall...the stuff you hear through in Hotels..lol
Vegas locals: How unsafe is that highway 160 climb when the road isn’t closed?
From my memory 8+ years ago not bad at all in the mornings. Large enough shoulders up and down the climb. Down more likely to take the right lane though, but your speed is high enough.
Cars are fast on it
It's the most direct route between parhump and Vegas
But wide shoulders
Wide shoulder. Fast (65+ mph) traffic in 2 lanes up & down. A little concerning going down as there are some small gates in the shoulder which make for tight positioning at speed.
After watching this video, I realized how small and snug Phil's helmet is compared to his head. Think I just found 10 free watts at 40kmh. Do any aero gurus in here know if the Evade helmet is fastest?
There is no fastest helmet, it differs from person to person. Having said that, the Evade is a good design. But the main reason I got one is because it fits me really well.
As soon as I heard 5% avg I knew you weren't going to take it, that is still in drafting territory so no surprise that a relatively unknown person took it with likely a team of people to draft behind.
This is incorrect, I gotta stand up for the Vegas locals haha. James Piccoli set the kom solo. He probably has the fastest 30 times up that climb. Phil was just slower. Now if Phil had good conditions on the climb instead of the headwind, he probably does it in 14:20 instead of 15:20. But still far off James' time.
Come to the one in San Antonio next year
What part of France are you from? lol 😄
