  • Jpow and Phil is quality content. You guys need to fly to more races .
  • Hahaha, loved the intro. Still in total disbelief at the finishing banner, it was obviously done with the best of intentions but there should only be one thing at a finish line of a HC: volunteers to keep riders from falling over from sheer exhaustion. Negatives aside, Jeremy is such a character and you guys are hilarious together. Great job on the victory!
  • @JamyRyals
    2 gears! Stand up and sit down is gold! God tier 🥇
  • @jedisdad2265
    I have to say JPow is amazing. I really miss his content on GCN. He was the presenter that this old man would like to share a ride and beer with!
  • 14:50 as a fellow unicyclist, if I got a dollar for every "you are missing a wheel" comment I hear, I'd be rich now. We had a hillclimb at unicycle world champs this year, I managed to overtake a few guys on expensive roadbikes there, which was fun. Mt washington looks like a great race, congratulations on your win!
  • @therondc
    Can confirm that finishing in 2 hours is very difficult. Though I'm pretty sure that finishing in 50 mins would be harder.
  • JPow! I love you! Please resume your YouTube channel! You energy and enthusiasm is off the charts. Plus that megawatt smile. Oh, and great job Phil.🙃
  • @chriscook4130
    Your camaraderie is key. You have many friends and you have friends that will give you and take your shizz all day. Wonderful to have Jeremy's perspective. Chapeau!
  • @des3iny
    "Your power file is so flat, the wall is jealous" whose line is this, I cracked when I read that 🤣
  • oh man, Jeremy and Phil what a duo! You all should do a lot more content together, I love the chemistry! Hilarious! (I need a few more "!") !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.!
  • @paulguyot9318
    This was equal parts inspiring, funny, informative, and entertaining. I'm so inspired I'm going to go out and ride my own version of Mt Washington... 700 meters at 5%.
  • @divyagarh
    This is great video I have seen after long time. Really enjoyed it. I got a picture with you Phil after the race. Thanks for uploading.
  • @tedallenwolff
    I thoroughly enjoyed that! Big congrats Phil. Good to see Jeremy too. I used to catch his GCN videos. I lived in Boston for 15 years and bought my first road bike there. I fondly remember rides through all those beautiful little historical towns (Concord, Lexington) and doing some bike packing into New Hampshire and down to the cape. This video brought back memories....made my day.
  • @rck812
    Excellent video and nice editing. It's always a winner when you get together with Jeremy
  • @ImGlossy63
    Phil and Jeremy that was awesome!! Very informative yet extremely hilarious also. But damn that hill looks like a beast!!
  • @cyndytri
    What a fun video - Phil and JPow together! Your laughter is contagious. Seriously amazing climbing work. And I loved how you gave a shout out to the amateurs and (their) families/ supporters. 💕
  • @g1985h
    Been looking forward to this footage - so excited to see you take home the W!
  • @gamby16a
    Definitely need more events with JPow. You two are brilliant together! I loved the 2 different races you rode. Great to see you win, too. This might be my favorite of your videos to date.
  • Magnificent! Looks like you and JPOW had such a good time. And Congrats Phil!!!
