Phil Gaimon's "Worst Retirement Ever" - Asheville, North Carolina - Mt. Mitchell

Phil attempts the record for Mt. Mitchell, the crowned jewel of the southeast, facing the drama of weather, animals, and literally the best chicken sandwich in America. This episode was filmed and produced as an exploratory project by Cause+Effect. Please follow them on twitter @causeffect or instagram @causeeffect_tv http://causeffect.tv/ Cannondale, Mavic, Castelli, Chamois Buttr, Velofix, Clif, ISM, Arundel, New Balance, Oakley, and Orucase all helped Phil get to the bottom of the climb. He'll have to get himself to the top. Interested in riding Mt. Mitchell yourself? In addition to the chicken sandwich at Buxton Hall, we highly recommend Velo Girls: http://velogirlrides.com/ and the Assault on Mt. Mitchell. http://theassaults.com/assault-on-mt-... CORRECTION: Karl is the current president of "Freewheelers of Spartanburg" but a great gentleman by the name of John Bryan is actually the founder of the Assault on Mt. Mitchell. Strava file for Mt.
