2025 Everesting Cycling Fest
Creating an inclusive cycling community and breaking barriers that limit access to cycling can be hard work. The Everesting Cycling Fest is a 1-day hill climb fundraiser that mirrors the hard work it takes to build an equitable community by challenging riders to reach the summit of a mountain (the highest being Everest at 8,848m). This fundraiser enables New Hope Community Bikes to break barriers by facilitating programming that includes teaching children to ride bikes, mentoring youth through skill development, supporting cycling initiatives in remote Indigenous Communities, and making cycling accessible to vulnerable people groups.
For this challenge, riders will ride up and down the escarpment until they’ve reached the summit of Mount Everest or a summit of their choosing:
- Mount Everest (Nepal) – 8,848 m (approx 84 climbs)
- Mount Logan (Yukon) – 5,250 m (approx 50 climbs)
- Mount Terror (Antarctica) – 3,262 m (approx 31 climbs)
- Or simply try a climb similar to that of Mount Albion (Hamilton) – approximately 76 m (one climb)
This challenge is for everyone!
