Oh great. I'll be doing one this afternoon then.

Just going out for a couple of hours now. Will do one as well.

Yup..I think they both pulled out when it started snowing. They both and Martin could do an everest with their eyes closed... But being who they are.. They chose the most badass Everest possible

Flip me - pair of snowflakes. Our boy in this thread would have just adjusted his gearing and broken all sorts of records.

Completing an Everest is not that hard with the right gearing. If I just cruise I can do it in 12 hours or so. I have an all or nothing mentality though so coming to the realization that it was not going to happen was enough for me to abandon it altogether. I should have checked more data before organizing the event. The gps made me believe 1020 meters per hour was possible for 8.75 hours but the actual data means it is difficult to hold 920 meters per hour for over 9 hours.

China - rule number one: don’t be a knob.

I was on the ridge that day Benky did it. He passed us three times on our ride up. He is a machine and gentleman of note.

that's one amazing climb. Just hard on breaking for an everest attempt but they did it

oops. I got a rap over the knuckles for the FBombs in the GIF.

My first ever warning. Finally feel like a real hubber.

 

How many more raps before you become one of the disappeared? :ph34r:

For naughty language? If so, please make a PG13 version so we can use that.

Yep, please do PG13 one... I posted your original in another thread... I will promptly go delete it and put in the SFW version.
