Jens Voigt is well-known for tough rides and this time he didn’t make it easy for himself. For the Jensie Everest Challenge he climbed the Berlin Teufelsberg 100 times to gain the height of the Mount Everest (8848m). Considering the tough winter conditions and the fact that he did it to raise money for cancer research ‘Tour De Cure Trust’ we can’t help but take our hats off. Up to now he already raised more than 26,000 EUR… Chapeau! You still can donate (ends 10th of January): ammado.com
