The pace listed above is the average pace we do, so in general when cycling along the flat we will go a bit faster than the average pace. Please be aware of this if you are wondering whether you will be able to keep up on the ride. |
If 10 people do this then we will have cycled up the equivalent of Mt Everest.
Everest 8849
Ben Nevis 1345
Yr Wyddfa 1085
Brandon (Eire) 952
Scarfell Pike 978
Slieve Donard (NI) 850
Total 14059
So 17 of us doing 1005m each cumulatively climbed all of these. And a bit more.
