All the non-militant cycling articles are in the Exec section. 9000m? I’m looking at 900 trips up one road near me. Pass.

Back of envelope calculation suggests to Everest the Kew Boulie in 7.5hrs you’d need to do an out and back lap in 9 minutes.

Yer 7.5 is roughly the record.
I was wondering if an undulating segment like Kew Boulie might have enough vert gain and could be done at high enough speed.
Alas nowhere near it.

Sorry guys
The King is dead. Long live the King.
> The Everesting record recently set by Alberto Contador has just been toppled by Irish cyclist Ronan McLaughlin. McLaughlin’s time of 7:04:41 – which has been confirmed by Hells 500, the Australian group that administers Everesting – is a substantial leap forward, breaking Contador’s mark by more than 20 minutes

this is the collab of UK/Irish hill climbing culture and Everlasting. Arguably quite cursed.

Pretty interesting article on Ronan’s bike: [6.2 kg, three gears and cut-off drops: The bike used for the Everesting record - CyclingTips](https://cyclingtips.com/2020/08/6-2-kg-three-gears-and-cut-off-drops-the-bike-used-for-the-everesting-record/)
I’m about as far from a weight weenie as you can get, but I kind of admire the DIY approach he took to shaving off the grams.

At first glance it looks like something you’ll see in the muppet setups thread…
