Pure Savage Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Insane day yesterday, just going to give a quick summary before full went up with photos. Calvin managed to complete the challenge last night at 22:00! He climbed franschoek pass 20 times in one day!! Thanks to all that came out. Full report to follow. The rest of the team did between 4000m and 5000m on the day. Also well done to Graham that joined is for the day for also completing it!! Massive a new recruit!
