Event Details
In 2018 we raised $10,000 to support a new home for NHCB. This year’s event will be bigger and better with more teams, more data tracking, another worthy cause – the ongoing support of New Hope Community Bikes’ programs, programs like our high school mountain bike club, youth drop in programs, co-op student placements, women’s specific bike clubs, bike rodeos
In 2018, a group of 11 people spent a rainy cold day riding hill repeats with the goal of summiting Mt. Everest as a team. One participant even rode 8,800m solo!
Summiting Mount Everest is not a task that is taken lightly, neither is our fundraising goal. This year we’ve set our goal at the imperial height of Everest (29,002ft).
Everesting Participants will be committing to ride anywhere from 20% to the entire height of Everest depending on how many people they choose to have on their team. Teams of up to 5 will climb a total of 8,800 m in one day. Using the Hamilton escarpment (~105m) as our summit climb, teams will need to complete 84 summits.
