Congratulations to Karen Darke who is a British paralympic cyclist, para-triathlete, adventurer and author. She successfully hand-cycled to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania on her ICE Full Fat Trike that has been specially modified to be a handcycle. It’s not the usual cycling adventure request we get involved with, but it sounded amazing and a little crazy and if anyone can do it Karen can. It sounded an impossible challenge so of course we said yes!
After shipping the trike backwards and forwards across the UK, ICE made some special adjustments to her trike to give her the very best possible chance of success, by giving the trike more powerful upgraded brakes and super low gearing so she could cycle using her arms up incredibly steep mountain terrain.
In August Karen and her team of local expert guides and other cycle companions, successfully cycled to the summit of the African volcano which is around 5,895ft above sea level over six days.
