What is the KOM Challenge?
What is the KOM Challenge?
The Adobo Velo KOM Challenge is a three-stage Kambing of the Mountain climbing series designed exclusively for Adobo Velo members.
There’s no racing and no time limits, just camaraderie, community, and the satisfaction of personal achievement. Each stage is a beautiful, EPIC ride.
KOM challenge rides are deeply rooted in Adobo Velo’s DNA. Classic rides like the Tour de Francis and Giro di Bri gave members a supported opportunity to stretch their wings and soar on routes reaching 100 miles with 10,000 feet of climbing.
