The Repsol Honda MotoGP rider Dani Pedrosa and the 250cc Pepe World Team rider Hector Barbera, are getting in a bit of extreme fitness training during their seasons break, after accepting the ‘Extreme Challenge’ offered by Jesús Calleja, to climb the highest mountain in the Alps, Mount Blanc.
The two riders along with off-road racer and Dakar winner Marc Coma, began their coaching last Wednesday when they were taken to the Algüille du Midi, to acclimatise them to the weather conditions. On Thursday they moved onto Mer de Glace, where they were taught how to use the equipment and tools provided for the challenge.
Now the hard work begins as the Spanish film crew from Channel Cuatro and the mountaineering team begin the climb over the next few days, more to follow.
