It’s 2009 and time for my 5th annual challenge!


2008 Challenge Success!

By Will • Nov 2nd, 2008 • Category: Cycling

Wow are my legs tired.

I have completed my main 2008 Challenge to cycle 160,000 metres of vertical ascent (or one foot for every minute of the year). There is no doubt that my silly challenges have kept me motivated.


2008 Challenge Update

By Will • Jul 17th, 2008 • Category: Cycling

Year-to-date, I have cycled 91,377 metres (299,800 feet) of vertical ascent.

And despite way too much beer, I have lost some weight.


2008 February Challenge Update

By Will • Mar 1st, 2008 • Category: Cycling

If nothing else, so far this year I have proven that it is possible to cycle the Alps in winter – at least smaller climbs.


Does My Bum Look Big?

By Will • Dec 11th, 2007 • Category: Cycling

For the last few years whenever Winter comes along I just start gaining weight. It’s time for intervention via a mini-challenge.

My primary 2008 Challenge won’t be unveiled until January 1st, but I can’t wait until then to stop this weight gain.


Pop the Champagne!

Nov 25 – Today, on a crisp, cold sunny day, I completed my 2007 challenge.


October Challenge Update

By Will • Oct 31st, 2007 • Category: Cycling, The Challenge

It’s cold and winter is approaching but I am getting pretty close to my target of 160,000 metres of vertical ascent for 2007. I rode less in October than I have for months and the extra rest days made me feel stronger.


September Challenge Update

By Will • Oct 8th, 2007 • Category: The Challenge

As the weather gets colder, I am making good progress towards my target – with a little more than 20,000 metres of ascent left – hopefully the weather will hold.
The highlight of September was without doubt 3 days cycling in the Berner Oberland in Swiss Alps.
