Tubehunter Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Seems like 4 of the young guns at UCT cycling managed to get an Everest climb ride in yesterday! The very impressive ride was a 24 times hill repeat of the Glen all the way up to Signal Hill and back, which took 17 hours to complete, that equaled 304km of total distance in order to get the 8862m of vertical ascent in one ride!Yoh, hardcore has just been tamed! MASSIVE RESPECT!!!! Edited September 22, 2014 by Tubehunter V12man, Underachiever, Pants Boy and 14 others 17

hboli4 Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 Yoh-yoh, would be hard pressed to find something in Bloem to do that and not ride it almost 100 times at least. Well done to the riders!
Tubehunter Posted September 8, 2014 Author Posted September 8, 2014 WELL-FLIPPEN-DONE! respect! Any video or photos? Some stuff on FB and twitter. Check for #everestingchallenge Frosty and BFG 2
Underachiever Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 Wow, super respect. This challenge is certainly on my bucket list!
Maniax Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 Some stuff on FB and twitter. Check for #everestingchallengeYou got a direct link maybe? everestchallenge is quite generic with all sorts of altitude events including running up stairs (who in their right minds will do that?!)
Cippo Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 RESPECT!!! Did they split the distance or did all four accomplish it?
Tubehunter Posted September 9, 2014 Author Posted September 9, 2014 RESPECT!!! Did they split the distance or did all four accomplish it? They each rode all of the 304 clicks and all individually climbed the 8862m of vertical climb. Started around 3am on Sunday morning and finished their last loop around 8pm on Sunday night. Brett 1

Cycling Addict Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Respect - are they the 1st guys to complete 1 in South Africa?
Pure Savage Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 One of the guys ended up in an ambulance and a drip! Pretty hectic!
