Australia KOM Fails - Norton Summit - Full Effort with Commentary

I thought about not posting this video because of some dumb comments I've been getting lately about doping, but I've decided not to change what I post for the people who don't get me at the cost of the folks who do. Flattering as it is to be accused of riding so fast that it can't be real, if this or anything I've done looks doped to you, you're really just admitting that don't know anything about me and you don't know much about cycling. The truth is I'm not even that fast, I was rarely more than a role player in the WorldTour, there's lots of clean riders who could drop me (and did), and this is a very attainable effort to beat if you put in the work for ten years like I did.

For folks who are new here, if you want to learn more about me, my feelings about doping, why I got my CLEAN tattoo, and be entertained with some funny stories, I’ve put that out a long time ago in three excellent books available in stores on my website. I'll even discount the books so I'm not making money on these--one week only, BOOKS code gets you $5 off. www.philsfondo.com/shop

Do me a favor: don't name any trolls in my comments here and there's no need to argue with them on my behalf. I know who I am and the best way to have my back is to unfollow them and starve them of the drama they want. I'm pretty sure it's just one guy with 50 fake accounts and too much free time anyway, so if you don't know what I'm talking about with any of this, consider yourself blessed and move on. Willunga video coming next!
