A great video, from start to Finnish.
-
The real reason this is one of the happiest places on earth is because this is a society that focus’ on the quality of life of all of its citizens. Give that some thought for a moment.
-
Wake up babe, Cookie Monster posted a 31 minute gravel video!
-
29:18 is the most golden moment of this video, which is a nugget itself! LOL! Thanks Phil! Safe travels see you in our canyons ;)
-
Phil, as a Kiwi with a a Finnish partner, you nailed the tourism intel. Can confirm excellent gravel roads, still rideable through a long season and also on snow if you’re able to fit spiked tyres with clearance. Summer cabins in summer, Sauna & Alcohol in winter. Wildlife you will find early AM in spring.
-
Having not been to Finland, but having spent a month total (in 1992) training and racing on the track in Blaine, Minnesota, I can attest to that feeling that people there are already thinking about the upcoming winter even though it's June.
-
The plant in the community garden is an allium. Also beautiful in flower.
-
Great video - one of Phil's best. Love Emily - she makes all the videos better!
-
Also, that is neither a puffin nor a duck. That is a goose! 🤣
-
Does...does Phil know that those influencers don't actually teleport with those kinetic scence transitions?
-
Hunter Thompson ran for Pitkin County sheriff back in the 70s and one of his platforms was to remove all the asphalt from Aspen, build a parking lot outside the town, and make it car free. However, he did not win.
-
Best outro song ever. Keeper!
-
One of your best ever videos! Awesome looking gravel race (especially those rollers). And sharing so much more of the trip was great! But where was Valtteri?
-
As an LA resident, I wholeheartedly endorse your mayoral campaign platform of remove the roads and putting in cycling infrastructure. 🎉
-
What a great Sandstorm impression - could hear it in my head 😂
-
Great video!, That part where Tiffany rides through those rolling hills is just awesome
-
This was most excellent. A top watch. Big love from Radelaide Australia
-
Great to see Tiffany ripping it
-
When worlds collide - my favorite retired pro cyclist (actually second to Zirbel - college teammate) and my favorite F1 driver. Love the content. Edit: The closing credits killed me. Chef's kiss.
-
Pretty sure you will not see a skunk in Finland so the roadkill Emelly saw was a badger. Really nice video.
