Garmin Winter Training 2012 - Christophe Le Mével

[TurkiyeCumhurbaskani]

I fell in love with road cycling because of climbing

[LordByronRG10]

looks like its been influenced by the British team Rapha .

[santisfather]

Excelente,

[OrganicMK]

This video gives me an explosive desire to ride a bike, in mountains of course if possible.

[hato1104]

it is so cool!

[hellomate639]

@pet15cycling

I agree. Especially with the mountains.

The music fit it well and added to that whole otherworldy atmosphere that I feel when I'm biking in an amazing place.

This makes me think about augmented reality for cyclists.

[MarsManatee]

As someone who hates modern consumer culture with a very reasonable passion, I hate to admit that some of the most beautiful art being produced right now is done for commercials.

[telequest]

muy bueno!

[markyboy28able99]

i live in the alps in France and have tried to do this a couple of times. The problem is the air is cold for exercise. Heavy breathing just kills your lungs. Nice vid despite it being unrealistic.

[WegrennerX]

@markyboy28able99 I get the same though some people seem to be able to handle it! Dunno why. Training? Genetics? whta do you think?

[Chronox5]

@WegrennerX It's definitely training, you need to be outside a couple of days before your lungs can handle the cold. (from a runner's perspective)

[dhavebur]

@markyboy28able99 Man up!

[HariVIyer]

just make sure you don't hit an icy patch on your decent, buddy.

[Rejor111]

I wanna be badass like this guy.

[wullebulle123]

this is why we need more velodromes - sorry garmin

[coltsfan54321]

You know sitting down in that snow was the best feeling ever

[markistc]

hardest part of riding that far... riding back!

[OHGM88]

incredible video man¡

[tucnasam]

that ride down is gunna suuuuucckkkk!

[peuptydeuptypaynts]

This is so damn immersive.

[askdjflasf]

americans couldnt make a video this cool and im american

[padurjan888]

Notice, how clear the road is... Rare sight in winter time from where i'm from.

[joskes123]

I completely freaked out when he threw his super expensive bike on the ground. A real shame.

[spurtmen]

impresionante....dan ganas de irse a vivir a la montaña..., con una cervélo!

[Gromitdog1]

He stopped at the snow. A real man would have kept going.

[AF6H4N1ST4N]

@Gromitdog1 lol

[askdjflasf]

@Gromitdog1 the road ahead was frozen lol

[dmkovalenko]

Знаете только чего никогда не поймет этот робот - того что человек не знает предела своим возможностям, ведь те люди, которые только и ищут пределы своих возможностей на фейсбуке проводят минимум времени, и то ради своих фанатов)

[griffknows]

This video is just to beautiful to watch only once, i'm going to be honest i raped the replay button, sorry

[corcksuckingicehole]

That commercial was cheeese! And by the looks of the comments many of you fell for it. Awesome work advertisement guys.

[Nikos8ight]

nice video

[Qander1336]

I'd want to see that decent lol

[vdpyouri]

amazing !!

[gluk122]

is it in soelden/oetztal?

[adhdboy699]

@gluk122 Description

[massa1980massa]

@pet15cycling totally agree. The guys at Hafzoo really captured the beauty of cycling. Hopefully we see more from them! The Garmin running diary is another great vid. Check it out

[eirepol73]

Yes, I agree.

Very cool.

A fine example of how a little bit of imaginative film-making goes a long way into creating a suggestive generative for getting into sport.

Cycling has been going on a long time. Dragged through a lot too. Change the powers that be and let more creative genii into the governing and development of this great spice. It needs a resurrection akin to a more avant-garde coolness. Cycling is just too cool to be treated the way it presently is.

Onward.

Chapeau, Garmin, Chapeau.

[jefnazario]

Splendiferous!

[orecca]

Beautiful ! very beautiful movies. Chapeau for the camera works

[filos71]

i prefer Belen Rodriguez as a ( virtual ) partner of my training

[PadiM3]

Nice, he drives a BMW 5-series Touring :)

[dmonkeytripple]

Machine!



[ginganz13]

Did I hear a submarine then his undie elastic snap?

[09bikerman1]

Hopefully this will be on MyTracks soon so I can save £250

[BARRGE50]

Cold air in in the lungs is a tad painful ahh

[spark911uk]

Overall beautiful but was really looking for a clearer representation of the fact he beat his previous record like us seeing him overtaking the virtual him - bit of an anti climax at the end in how they revealed this fact (although I guess they were going for some misdirection)!

[jono1971]

Is it a toll road?

[MrDanielloots]

@jono1971 yep - for cars - free for bikes though

[Xanoptic0n]

It makes it seem so relaxing and peaceful but any regular man trying to bike up there would be brutal :P

[buadman]

How juch is the bike worth?

[MysterySparkStudios]

good graphics

[iBatezy]

Brilliant Advert!

[magnusalexa]

@pet15cycling the roads in france are a pleasure to ride on, proper smooth surface and plenty of room for riders, car drivers move for cyclists over there, and many pipping their horns and waving as they pass.

[magnusalexa]

@pet15cycling i went on a cycle holiday through france,a month over a thousand miles,on mtb's with camping gear on the back,was best holiday i ever had,total freedom,sleep where we wanted too &stop when we wanted too,was usually stoppin at superstores though,best place for cheap food.Chocolate croissants 4breakfasts from bakeries.makin a stew in a forest one night &a mother wild boar &piglets came 2check out the smell,i had to make lots of pig noises to get rid of them!

[zaphod2]

@magnusalexa sounds so good i would just like to leave for this right now

[SuperCidalFilms]

I like the editing with all the cool motion tracking :)

[reklim12]

The ideal workout - a real man, a warrior has not given in nature.

[NCR345]

is he just drinking hot water??? lol

[ItalyPaul]

segtumk h7 56yu7 thnj

[rotwart]

This is encouraging people to ride down the middle of public roads...wonder how many deaths it will ultimately be responsible for?

[jacksamthompson]

the blue looks amazing in contrast to the snow.

[Blado1988]

why did he stop the mard arse

[bucknell28]

wait, what?

[MrAwesomecomment]

Man you have to be a REAL narrow-minded, empty, tasteless, shit-for-brains asshole to dislike this......just saying.

[stingyzx]

@MrAwesomecomment I disliked because of all the breathing noises. I'm a cyclist.

[johnthefarmer]

@stingyzx Ha ha. Your comment made me laugh.

It's pretty difficult not to make a breathing noise whilst climbing a hill on a bike.

[123madbeesbrick123]

@stingyzx Onviously you're a really good one if you don't make breathing noises when you're going as fast as Cristophe up there

[mrsaddlebag]

Thats my sport.Simply the best.Superb video.

[71pasotti]

Che bello, complimenti!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrInternetDude]

I love how they made the video

[JPorterUK]

1 dislike. What a guy. But dont do a second, it's not funny.

[ChronicHooch]

so boring

[Jason2638]

this place is just beautiful !

[oisiaa]

I'm a wimp. It was 50º out today which is too cold for me!

[gregoryclive1]

Amazing!!!  Well Done

[conkerking2]

Absolutely stunning.

[guerero93]

The guy who dislike is the virtual partner ^^

[TheNightowl59]

Damn I love it! Very motivational.

[NaviCreate]

somebody knows the song in this video?

[calmenda]

Awesome. It's like the zen of cycling.

[imhotep9]

Anybody know the song/artist in this ad?

[rejoicingGrace]

what a beautiful place

[damienteney]

Looks like Timmelsjoch, near Solden (Autria). Unfortunately it's closed during the winter, this was probably shot in the Fall.

[jouxpane]

Maybe the best video of 2012.

[Honasek]

@jouxpane quite early to say isnt it?

[Justinmacias7]

@Honasek nope

[photonergy]

Awesome!

[carl1964carl]

Very nice. Can i buy his long sleeve jersey somewhere?



[shines4s]

@carl1964carl I think those are arm warmers, and yes u can bye them from any cycling shop... ( my bad if those aren`t arm warmers )

[theronanryan]

Class act ...Il est formidable

[sergecordon]

génial Christophe !!

[AldeCycle]

Everything that I love about cycling

[DARIOMARCHESIN]

Fantastic.....

[Hobson0904]

name of music?

[djtektalus]

just a great add

[HardcastlePhoto]

This is really, really well done. Love the crispness of the money shot on that garmin head unit. Killer sound production, just awesome. (Also a garmin user myself, mild bias:)

[OCEANNA421]

amazing video :)

[Igneousiceman]

Quite possibly one of the best 'adverts' I've ever seen!

[JeDaaRe1]

Amazing.

[yffiniac]

it's in Austria!

[nantetsu14]

cool!

[dvdmuels75tv]

Where this awesome place?

[MrDanielloots]

@dvdmuels75tv Timmelsjoch - Soelden, Austria

[ducesx]

Brilliant
