Everesting World Record Update 2

[Thor Buttox]

I did a serious 36min KOM a few weeks ago. Have been training hard so I was really chuffed about it. A local 18 year old National cyclist went out 50mins after I did and annihilated it by 2mins cos he was, quote, 'Triggered'.

 

Think that must be a record for a non-group ride situation!

hahaha ! I got one last week, I was quite proud with, then a few mins after, the previous KOM took it back... I mean I got home at 9, saw I had the KOM, and 5 mins later it was gone ! So it 'Triggered' me and I got it back yesterday

 

 

Shame I actually feel for that poor Phil Gaimon, he didn't even have the time to post his record and let it sink in that it was already taken away from him... And I mean it's not like he just got it, he destroyed the old record ! He said after getting the record that he would never do it again, and 4 days later he's already joking about finding the perfect 20% gradient hill haha

This is actuality happening.

 

We need our boychay on it pronto. Before maincheese gets the memo

 

I like Phil a little more after that video :-)  The sun never sets on my KOM world        Good on him for posting a link to the new king's charity drive.

There you have it

Honestly don't know what fuckin rabbit hole I tumbled into on this thread.... but anyway. Proper.

To complete an “Everesting”, a rider must overcome the height of the world’s highest peak. It is, quite obviously, a feat in and of itself. Yet some ask for more.

Charli Mandel did. She did it on a fixed gear, no brake. In the middle of hormone replacement therapy. Or, as she puts it below, “Puberty 2: Feminine Boogaloo”.

Some people are faffing that he didn't do it correctly and won't have the "official record".

 

He climbed one side of the mountain and then went down the other side and did the rest of the laps there.

 

Apparently the climbing needs to be done on a single climb only.

 

Weird. Always thought the only requirement was the total elevation gain.

Bora stated quite clearly that it is the unofficial record.[emoji6]

 

 

One hell of a feat regardless.

And at least now Buchmann can say things like "An Everest is easy"

Black and white won't count officially, but at least now we know what a tdf level rider can do. Sub 7?

In terms of cycling viewership, a live Everest challenge streaming from different parts of the world would be epic right now.

 

Need to do laps of the same segment.

And certain segments won't count too, if there are too many free metres (IE, rolling downhill)

Did he do it on kale, bananas and tofu? Or on a bicycle? Cos sometimes distractions affect performance.

everesting is now been replaced by "trenching"

I think we need to give credit to vanzweelism where it's due!

he definitely identified that this world record thing would be beatable.

 

and a whole host of okes have done just that!

i assume he's given up now that the record is 90mins lower than when he first started.

 

anywho, what's our boytjeeee been up to in the meantime?

it would appear he's on a diet..of sorts
