I’m sure it it doesn’t really mean anything to you, but I’m a persistent fan, I just wanna let you know I think is a great video, I love the overlapped interview sky on Skype and the voiceover the images. It really filled up the video In the more stimulating way for the viewer. Great work man!

@worstretirementever 5 лет назад

sandrochiavaro this definitely means something to me. That’s like the whole point! Thanks for watching :)

@sandrochiavaroBeerCircles 5 лет назад

Phil Gaimon fair enough :) . To be clear, What I mean is , I am no film maker expert by any means ;) I do watch way a lot of RU-vid content so I guess I am an expert at that, lol. Keep it up Phil. 👍🏽

@mattturner2452 5 лет назад

I love this route! I've done it and others around Vegas every chance I get on a visit. That loop is great ... and then Charleston! That's a tough ride from the desert to a ski resort just outside of Vegas! My time was 2:10 I think :) Phil you rock and great to see some of my favorite rides in one video! Also Ford Transit Connect at 9:24.

@ElonMuckX 5 лет назад

15:13 UNLV!!! Vegas has some good riding, just sheety drivers. Used to do the Red Rock loop. Good hill climb, and a fun downhill. Nice to see they put cones out, must be really busy theses days. My favorite ride, was at night, between the cars stuck in traffic, on the strip, from Trop to Flamingo or Spring Mountain. Oh to be young and dumb again.........

@mikesimms1 5 лет назад

I've been to Vegas far too many times, mostly for conferences. I can't gamble because I'm good at math. That said, I'd probably hang out in the casinos and soak up the high oxygen atmosphere before attempting a KOM - like some weird form of legal doping. Great video as always.

@evanmacdougall9715 5 лет назад

Oh man, that Lee Canyon highway is almost dead straight. One of the straightest mountain roads, ever. You have to come back and ride up Kyle Canyon up to the actual Mt Charleston. Almost as straight, but with a few more bends and scenery. But, yeah, stay away from The Strip.

@SinCityCycling702 4 года назад

Hey Phil, love you're videos. This one is my home town. Anyway I ride both of these rides often. Was looking at Strava for your times on both. But was unable to find them. Maybe your times have been beat. But you don't appear in the top ten for any of these places. A friend just set the up and down record at Mt Charleston of 2:03:13. I guess it's time to come back. Give us a heads up. Would love to ride out with you. Or show you some of the other rides here.

Red Rock is a great ride...after the 5 mile hill !...Awesome stuff, and laughing as usual....Then there is river mountain loop trail for 35 miles...completely off road...The weirdest part of being down there in December/January is the sun is shining, and it's bloody cold...messes with your need for what you wear...then there is the wind..."A deleted scene from Train spotting"...priceless
