MrFine Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Did anyone do this challenge. Just completed the challenge today.Did 7340m of Off road climbing in and around the buffelspoort valley.Some tough climbs in the area with quite a lot of hill repeats to get all the meter in. Did 305 Km to climb 7340m with avg speed of 14.9 Km/Hr.Not to bad for my standards. Some great climbing with Awesome views.
MrFine Posted July 21, 2013 Author Posted July 21, 2013 Thanks.Quite a mission to do it and get to watch the Tour as well.
Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Have you ever received anything for completeing the challenges?BTW, well done, I have done very little cycling at all this winter. Feel quite guilty actually!!!
MrFine Posted July 21, 2013 Author Posted July 21, 2013 No but self satisfaction is just as good. Also something to challenge my self against.Most of my riding is done solo.

Would that be an e-badge or an actual badge they send to you.Just curious as I understand them sending it to you in the states but not all the way here in RSA

MTBc Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 15% of challenge completed. 1 week of busy work followed by a week of flu followed by a knee injury = a lot less riding over the last month than i wanted to
