OMAR DI FELICE, ICN AMBASSADOR, RETURNS TO ANTARCTICA TO AGAIN ATTEMPT LONGEST SOLO BICYCLE CROSSING ON CONTINENT
Extreme cyclist Omar Di Felice, one year after his first attempt, will set off again on what will be, once again, the most extreme and difficult adventure he has ever achieved: the solo crossing of Antarctica on his bicycle. The venture is part of the "Bike to 1.5°C" project through which Omar, through a series of adventures and explorations, wants to publicize issues related to the climate crisis.
OMAR DI FELICE COMPLETED THE WINTER CROSSING OF LADAKH
Omar Di Felice completed the long solo winter crossing of the Himalayan region of Ladakh by bicycle.
After 11 days in the saddle, 1100 kilometres and almost 20,000 metres of altitude difference, he concluded his adventure on the summit of Khardung La at 5359 metres above sea level.
ALONE IN LADAKH OMAR DI FELICE EMBARKS ON ANOTHER STAGE OF THE ‘BIKE TO 1.5°C’ PROJECT
Ultra cyclist Omar Di Felice's 2023 begins with a new extreme winter adventure crossing the remote Ladakh region among the Himalayan mountains and glaciers.
After returning early from Antarctica and waiting to set off again on what will be his second attempt to cross the planet's most remote continent, he has set a new goal.
An adventure that marks the point of departure: Omar will cross one of the highest and coldest regions on Earth, Ladakh. Located in the north of India, on the border between Pakistan and China, the region is the Himalayan district that still preserves Tibetan Buddhism intact, so much so that it is also nicknamed 'the Little Tibet of India'.
OMAR DI FELICE JOURNEY THROUGH ANTARTICA
Omar Di Felice is ready for the start of the “Antarctica Unlimited” adventure, the wide-ranging popular project that will attempt the first solo bicycle crossing of Antarctica via the South Pole.
