I conduct the Kora Cycling Challenge in Nepal since the past 15 years - this year, our challenge got 6200+ riders to ride in about 20 locations in Nepal and also about five locations worldwide - including Vancouver, Sydney, Laos, Scotland and three locations in the US. It is widely popular.

Have formed a Club as well only called Kora Challenge - that lists the events on the Mother location - Kathmandu - loops of 50kms, 75kms, 100kms and 165km around the valley - with the last one having a 4000+m altitude gain. 

Every year, riders do about 300,000 kms in total - about 7.5 times around the earth - in one day.

Wanted to work with Strava to make this into a Public Challenge - so that athletes could do their koras anywhere on the globe.

This happens on the Third saturday of every July - next one on 18th July 2026. 

Want to know if this is in any way possible, or is the CLUB my only way to get people to join - btw, already over 1000 athletes in the club!
