16 ultimate cycling challenges, as voted by you

Cycling Weekly readers tell us what their ultimate cycling challenge would be

Everyone has a different take on what constitutes a 'challenge'. For some, it's just getting out of bed in the morning. For others it's tackling a 100-mile bike ride for the first time, losing weight, or setting a good time on their local monster hill.

Get 100 people in a room, and you'll probably get 100 different answers to what the 'ultimate cycling challenge' would be. Here are a selection of cycling challenges as voted by readers. Some are very personal, and others would probably appear on many riders' bucket list.

Nigel Wynn
Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
