Starting at 10pm on June 2nd 2017, our own Rich Wiles-Teoh completed his fundraising Everesting Challenge.

He's raised over £2,700 for St Andrews Church in Castle Combe by cycling repeatedly (181 times) up the hill out of Castle Combe for a total ascent of 8876m, 28m more than the height of Everest.

​

Many members of Sherston Velo and other clubs turned up at various points during the night and day to ride with Rich and provide encouragement, support and even a spare wheel. Many of us were embarrassed by failing to keep up with Rich going up hill, despite the fact that he'd been going for up to 15 hours already.

​

His JustGiving page will be open for a while if you'd like to contribute to this noble effort.

​

Everyone at Sherston Velo is very proud of his efforts.

 

Chapeau, Rich.
