Big-mountain biking

Congratulations to Eastside CrossFitters Volker and Steven for accomplishing their Trans-Alp cycling tour! In seven days they rode 628 km, from Mittenwald, Germany, to Riva del Garda, Italy, climbing a total of 21,693 vertical meters, mostly off-road. These guys trained hard in the gym and put in many miles in the saddle while ramping up for their grand adventure. Their squat-strengthened bodies were good to go, and all went well, with the minor exception of a broken bike frame.
