previous events & test runs
These are the test runs and attempts:
| date | who | distance | description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2013-07-06 | Xopr | 72km | did a test run (it was actually to receive the prize of a bet which I won: Achel Trappist № 5) and found out that the comfort limit of an untrained person will be about 60km a day, so best practice is to keep the complete tour under this amount. |
| 2013-07-13 | Da Syntax | 40km | Herkenbosch to Heerlen; Great success! (xopr guesses) |
| 2013-07-14 | Da Syntax Xopr | 52km | did the actual trip from Heerlen to Weert |
| 2013-07-14 | Da Syntax | 30km | After a couple of beers (from all three countries we cycled through earlier that day) in Weert Da Syntax continued his journey Weert-Herkenbosch. This comes to a total of +/- 80km that day. So he guess it should be possible for a untrained person to cycle 80km in a day (maybe beer functions as a good motivator). |
| 2014-05-17 | Xopr | 56km | repeated his Achelse kluis tradition. |
| 2015-05-23 | Xopr | 75km | Went to Achel and Valkenswaard again without any hassle in an estimated 5 hours. Good position of the saddle is key. |
| 2016-05-15 | 0km | (cancelled) Pinknick edition. Trip was postponed due to weather conditions (13°C, 3-4bft NW, 65% @ 1.5mm, 40% sun) |
