... Well kind off, he rode an ascent of Everest in one day by going up and down a hill nearly 100 times to ascend just under 30,000 feet. He is French so any madness is allowed in his country. The rules for 'Everesting' are here:

And his ride is here:

That is crackers!

Just outside Bristol is Belmont Hill. Last year there was a Strava climbing challenge, and one guy rode up Belmont Hill 17 times in a row to meet the target 😆

That is mad, not only in the challenge but in the tedium of cycling up and down the same hill 100 times 😯 ...well done to your mate 😀

We've been thinking of doing such a thing. 15xGreat Dunn Fell will do it 😉 It's certainly a big day on the bike.

Nah, once up Great Dunn Fell is enough. Maybe twice if there was a cafe at the top.
