Wheelie hour world record in aid of Nepal

On June 7, the next world hour record attempt will take place at the Lachen stadium in Thun. Not in the traditional sense on a cycling track, but in back wheel cycling. The attempt will also be used as a fundraiser for the reconstruction of a hydropower plant in Nepal.

Manuel Scheidegger wants to pulverize the world record of Austrian Thomas Kaltenegger. In order for the world record attempt to be included in the Guinness Book of Records, the front wheel must never touch the ground during the entire ride and the attempt must be carried out on a 400-metre athletics track. The principle is similar to that of a charity run. An amount can be donated per kilometer covered. After the world record attempt, the amount for the distance actually covered by Manuel Scheidegger will be paid. The fundraising campaign will benefit the reconstruction (school, drinking water supply, toilets, paths) of the mountain village of Yangri in Nepal.
