Re: Yak attack (Jungle Run)
Hi,
Right post
Tonight Jungle run.
I thought that he looked a bit cramped on the MTB, legs very bent.

Re: Yak attack
He was a rugby player, even the backs are not know for being petit.
I've been over the Thorong La the high pass that he carried his bike over, 700m up from his previous stop at Thorong Pedi and about 1500m down to Muktinath. Not easy walking at that altitude, I'm impressed carrying a bike at that altitude, and also pedaling one.

Re: Yak attack
Hi,
We all want bigger feet and to be taller, but at 2Mtrs he is tall, I guess he is not 106 kgs (16.5 stone) anymore or would need to be.
Any way if you don't know the outcome don't go looking on the net
The runs going to be hell.
