I have this fantasy too. Sometimes Phil and Paul provide commentary on my ride up Capitol, between Barbur and Wilson High School, in Portland, OR. Well done.
Walter Mitty dominates on his way to work, well done mate . It reminds me of the many game winning shots I made as mom called me in for supper. Many a heroic shot was made in the back yard championships of my youth.
I can totally relate. We had a young couple and their son cheer us on riding through that cemetery on a training ride. It made me smile when they were shouting about the “attack on l’Alpe d’Huez. The hand slaps were a bonus.
Merritt – you rock man – can’t say that any cath jockey ever looked so good schlepping his way up to the PVAMC – sweet video – a real “show of defiance”… but I’m not so sure about the “…young rider…” bit – cheers RM
Very much enjoyed the video–I must admit to similar thoughts going through my head on occasion. I love the terrain of the ride, but I won’t be able to handle that until I drop quite a bit more weight and get back into shape. Just wanted to let you know that the vid is one of the things helping to inspire me to ride my bike to work more now.
Pure gold – so much fun and captures our inspiration. Well done pdxweatherman – the synching is superb, and of course the very careful choice of sound-clips is genious. The chopper! 🙂 Some requests: 1) edit out some of the start. 2) use standard TdF music at the end; 3) make another, longer one please.
Brilliant!

Those are swell racing fenders. Are they titanium or carbon fiber?
