Side quest: virtual Everest!
On Saturday 5 Dec 26 I will complete a virtual Everest on an indoor bike. While adding over 200km of distance to this challenge the greater effort is 8,848 metres of ascent.
It will take approx 12 hours of grinding ‘uphill’ on a smart trainer set to maximum difficulty. Including downhill loops, the overall effort should take 15 hours.
Will be following ‘www.everesting.cc’ rules:
- Same climb, repeatedly
- Can rest but not sleep
- Bike set to max (100%) difficulty
Every donation will help; please use GiftAid. Thank you in advance for your contribution.

First 50km done!
A birthday ride proudly wearing a Combat Stress cycling jersey.I am raising vital funds for life-changing mental health treatment for veterans.
In the year I'm turning 50, I will do fifty 50km bike rides for Combat Stress. Please donate anything you feel comfortable. I'm aiming to raise £1 per km. A £20 donation with GiftAid makes £25, contributing 1p per km.
Combat Stress is the UK's leading charity for veterans' mental health. For over a century, they've helped former servicemen and women deal with issues like trauma, anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Today, they provide support to veterans from every service and every conflict.
Thank you so much for your support.
