PHIL TAKES ON MT. BALDY and the Story Behind Cookie Corner |  

BO JACKSON IS A CYCLIST (?!) WHY AM I KNOWING THIS NOW

Hopefully the Tour of California can find another sponsor... that’s a great race to see fly by... lol

So strange that we’re in the biggest bike boom in a half century, and bike races are folding. RIP tour of California.

Phil doing the news while riding is fun.

Finally this is getting somewhere. Episode during the ride is excellent format. Just cut the Lex interview kind of content shorter. It does not need to be that serious folks. Plenty of other channels for that.

Thanks, Phil, for the Tour of California 'Cookie Corner' memories. I rode up Mt. Baldy between the women's and men's races at the 2019 Tour of California - riding through Cookie Corner was a memorable part of that experience. It was a lot colder on the mountain that day than when you filmed this...

Great episode guys! would have been better though for Lex's segment was a full clip that's separate to have it more emphasis and has a totally different tone.

Great job Phil you can start the "Cookie Fondo of California 2021...keep cycling.

Phil gets a thumbs up 👍🏻

Just wanted to counter those who said they didn't care for Lex's LYBF interview. While Phil giving the news is great, this interview was particularly important, especially for cyclists. These folks are doing important work and they deserve our time and support. Keep in mind that we're all just one distracted driver away from benefitting from their work!

I take my Strava comment back. Great episode Phil - totally new and rad content. Plus being a German Auburn Alum I love the shout out to my alma mater and the fatherland! War Eagle!!!

The high point in SoCal is San Gorgonio Mountain at 11,500. It is close to Oak Glen from Redlands Stage Race. Not sure if that is what you are seeing there, but could be. It may be 40 miles ATCF from Baldy. Nice episode!

92, Jewish (I assume) and living in Germany. I'd love to hear Phil's family story.

BO KNOWS CYCLING!! LEX ALBRECHT!!

We teach to count very well here in Athens Phil! Crowe's count for the points for WBL, well that is another story.

I love this channel!

Welcome to Claremont! Whoohoo!!

I enjoyed the film. Here's my obligatory self deprecating comment: If I stopped at cookie corner I wouldn't be able to get the bike rolling again unless I started downhill and did a u-turn.

The interviews are not a bad idea, but they take up way too much time in the show. Maybe just have a condensed version here, and make the full length version available separately.

Mt Whitney is the highest mountain in Ca. 14,505 ft or 4421 m

That blue bird looked like it was landing on Phil’s shoulder!

So when will Wahoo come out with an aero handlebar bag fairing with integrated computer?

Any chance you guys will separate the news, interview, and other segments from Phil telling us about his ride? I'm really only interested in watching the ride part.

Don't forget to mention Nelson Vails

I just want to know when the cookie hand up gloves will be available!

Love the vids esp from Phil. Not so interested in interviews. A bit static.

Always super! But the red skin…..😂🤣😂🤣😂

with all the switchbacks you just burn through the brakes and heat up the wheels if you have rim brakes.

Mt San Gorgonio: 11,503 ft.

is Lex on a flip phone? jeez that camera is horrible!

Damn Phil has an Oma in Germany, come visit 🤘

That middle segment was unnecessary. Wearing protective gear during a high risk physical activity, doesn’t absolve someone from getting a life changing injury. How many organizations need to pop up to remind us of that?

Germany bike friendly? I hope that was a bad joke.

Not brown it's Golden.

Colour grade looks weird, skin is very red/pink.

What you can go outside? Wait he's not wearing a mask wheres a Karen when you need one. As to the tour of California . Probably had to cancel because of the excessive taxes and laws jn the once great state.
