Phil Gaimon has posted his latest video in his 'Worst Retirement Ever' series, as the American former Cannondale-Drapac pro attempts to claim high-profile Strava KOMs... and with an unexpected ending.
In this edition, Gaimon attempts to claim the 'Flagstaff from Gregory Canyon' Strava segment in Boulder Colorado, USA.
He has tried to better Levi Leipheimer's current KOM time before, but put in a concerted effort this time in an attempt to better Leipheimer's mark of 11 minutes and 11 seconds, which was set during the US Pro Challenge stage race in 2012.
