SKCC’S Tim Tyler headed for Switzerland in August to compete in the Eiger Bike Challenge.

Part of the Swiss Bike Marathon series the Eiger Bike Challenge with it’s 1,500 participants is one of the five main MTB events in Switzerland and offers three distances, 25km, 55km & 88km. Tim opted for the 55km event with it’s 2,500 metres of climbing.

Tim advised, tongue in cheek “just a little warm-up race”.
