    Merritt Raitt is a cinematic genius! This video honors the everyday heros who make our planet a better place by reducing their carbon footprints. Way to go!

    Nice. I recognize the route. I commute through Riverview too. My co-worker recognizes you. You ride past his house.

    A few of my training rides have had Phil and Paul’s voices in my head.

    Luckily the voices end when I clip out of the pedals.

    LOVE IT! Way to balance work and play, from a fellow surgeon, triathlete, and Oregonian! This is how we have to live life to continue to enjoy and thrive in our profession.

    Not only a fun video — but a gorgeous commute. This Texan is jealous of all y’all northwesterners! :)

    I wish Phil and Paul would commentate my life. It would be much more interesting.

    Thanks from another fan.

    I twittered the video at Phil & Paul and Phil replied! He mistook me for the creator but it’s awesome to know he likes it.

    @turbodog Absolutey brilliant! There’s a job for you in TV, if you’re not already. Phil
