    Worst Retirement Ever: Revenge On Lookout Mountain

    Phil don’t like losing a KOM. He’s a professional retiree, after all. Revenge is seeked, but will it be sweet?

    Best Retirement Ever: Yosemite National Park

     It must be hard to be the worst at something if you’re still pretty good at it. Phil seems to have figured that out and now, instead of sometimes sucking at taking back KOMs for the good guys, he’s turned his lazy-ass ways to kicking back in some of the USA’s most scenic destinations.

  • Worst Retirement Ever: Taiwan KOM

    Worst Retirement Ever: Taiwan KOM

    Watching this was like deja vu all over again. I knew I’d seen Phil wandering around the Tapei markets looking for edible stuff and that giant bear jumping around. And of course Nibbles and Cuddles. Turns out that this happened last November and the B-rolls must’ve taken a fair bit of editing. Part 1 does…

    Worst Retirement Ever S2 E1: Pike’s Peak

    Pike’s Peak was put on the world motorsport radar by the now legendary film Climb Dance, a hair-raising trip into the setting sun with Ari Vatanen and his terrifyingly fast Peugeot 405 back in 1988.

    Worst Retirement Ever Ep 9: Mt. Evans

    Phil pins on a number and briefly comes out of retirement (sort of) for an attempt on the legendary Mt Evans. With a pretty handy posse of Pros around him, Tommy D’s dodgy record on the line, a UCI legal bike and a potholed road are more than formidable foes to overcome in the pursuit…

  • Worst Retirement Ever, Ep 8.5: Boulder 2 – The Sequel

    Worst Retirement Ever, Ep 8.5: Boulder 2 – The Sequel

    Sometimes, taking down dopers requires a second effort. And I don’t know if Phil does indeed succeed this time, but I’m sure there’ll be wattage up the yin-yang and cookies being burned.

  • Worst Retirement Ever EP 8: Boulder, Colorado

    Worst Retirement Ever EP 8: Boulder, Colorado

    Phil’s hilariously insightful take on the locals of Boulder sets the scene for another gripping episode of the Worst Retirement Ever. In this, part one of a two-pronged attack on the Flagstaff segment (Colorado’s answer to Alpe d’Huez), Phil is definitely in for a tough one going up against the best time of infamous smug…
