I’m more of a runner than a cyclist… but somehow I FOMO’d my way into one of Australia’s hardest one-day cycling events — the Three Peaks Challenge in the Victorian Alps.
235km, over 4,000m of climbing, and one goal: just to finish.

I headed to the Victorian Alps for the Three Peaks Challenge — one of Australia’s toughest one-day rides.
As someone who’s more of a runner, this was well outside my comfort zone… with 235km and over 4,000m of climbing ahead.
This is the full weekend experience — and whether I could actually make it to the finish.
