Cycling is one of the fastest growing sports in the world, Indonesia included. For the past few years, numerous cycling events are organized throughout the archipelago, presenting different experience and challenges.
Without a doubt, the Bromo climbing events in East Java have become THE EVENT to join. Every year, thousands of cyclists are trying to tackle the climb from Pasuruan City to Wonokitri Village, going from elevation zero to 2,000 meter in less than 40 kilometers.
For this year, founder of the climbing event, Azrul Ananda, have decided to present a different challenge. BROMO KOM CHALLENGE 2018 is now both competitive and non-competitive event.
For the racers and hardcore cyclists, now there is the newly formatted King of the Mountain (KOM) and Queen of the Mountain (QOM) competition. Inspired by top climbing events in the world, the race will start from Pasuruan all the way to Wonokitri, a huge challenge for those who join!
For the recreational cyclists, don't worry! The "normal" peloton with road captains and support crew will start after the race. But this time with a time limit. Only those who finished the 40 km ride in less than 4 hours will get finisher medals!
Let's go to Bromo! Challenge yourselves! We will suffer together on 21 April 2018!
Sincerely,
Azrul Ananda
