Everesting 2026

Every year the Berchtesgaden Bicycle Association hosts an Everesting Event on Germany's highest Panoramic road, the Roßfeld Straße. This year's event is taking place tomorrow on the 13th of June.

In cycling terms, an "Everesting" means riding repeatedly up and down a chosen climb until the elevation of Mt. Everest is accumulated. The current height of Mt. Everest is 8848m / 29032ft, which means climbing Roßfeld Straße 16x. (All cyclists are welcome even those who do not want to complete a full Everesting.)

If any of our German subscribers would like to join, please do so! I will also be at the Event with many of my friends in the Region. For extra motivation, the Berchtesgaden Bicycle Association will donate money to both the Traunstein Children's Cancer Center and Ramsau's Mountain Rescue for each Ascent completed by every cyclist on Roßfeld tomorrow.

Roßfeldstraße will additionally be closed for all cars tomorrow, and there will be support at the top of the climb with drinks, gels, and food. Hope to see you there!

Heat Training 101

As the peak of Summer nears and the year's highest temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere approaches, I thought it would be fitting to discuss the benefits of training in the heat. Not surprisingly, there is now compelling evidence that suggests that training in the heat (> 90F / 32C)
