Great video - even if you don't like Rapha!

...and just enough pink King hubs to satisfy my needs

Rapha videos always make me want to go and ride my bike but inevitably I end up watching them at work

Thanks! What a great film, Andy is a forgotten legend. The only thing I hate about that film is the guy with the mustache, surely he would be more comfortable on a "fixie" Sometimes I wonder is Rapha stuff aimed at cyclists at all??

Great film indeed, makes me even sadder that my frame is sat in the garage with a crack along the top tube

Why would the moustache fella be better off on on a fixie? I'm not sure who he was but I get the feeling he would would hold his own on many a club ride..

This has to be one of my faves, good music a bit of history and the pain for the sadist in you.

As bit of a Lemond fan, I was quite excited to see this. I was a bit disappointed TBH, the Q&A session seemed none existant, and when you read that he made them all wait outside for an hour and a half before showing his face it didn't sound as much fun as it should have been.

They made a big song and dance about what bike he would take out, and despite showing some close ups of a vintage steel - he chose to go out on a Trek built Zurich 2008 (I have this bike). Given the bitter fallout between Trek and GL I was a bit surprised. The Rapha boys seemed to be more pretentious than ever too.


But, all of these videos are nice to watch and they make me want to get out on my bike!

I was just about to post this. It's a nice film, but although I knew he wasn't exactly at racing weight anymore I still got a suprise! He seems to be happy chappy
