2020: “Everesting Indy”
Lap of Taiwan / 4 points
Closely following the coast of Taiwan, starting from Taichung and proceeding counterclockwise, the ride will cover about 700 miles (1130km) with 35,000 ft (10,700m) of climbing. I will attempt to ride around Taiwan as fast as possible, averaging over 200 miles (320km) per day. Each of the 4 points (westernmost, southernmost, etc.) of the island will be reached along the way. Dates are tentative, but the ride should occur in late 2019 or early 2020.
The planned route is at: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/29137357.
2020 and beyond-
I plan to eventually visit every SRAM facility globally on a WBR fundraising endurance ride. That will include:
- Lap of Taiwan
- a “Tour de SRAM Europe”
- Chicago to Spearfish, SD (the home of Quarq): draft route on RidewithGPS
- A few others!
Please contact me if you’d like to join or have suggestions on other challenging endurance rides to support World Bicycle Relief.
