Vegas In 24 is a grueling bicycle challenge created by Andy Funk. The event starts in Los Angeles, ends in Las Vegas, and is covered on a bicycle – all in under 24 hours. A total of 365 miles (that’s 17% of the 3-week Tour de France in a single day) combined with 14,500 feet of elevation gain (that’s half way up Mt. Everest on a bike) with no nutritional support and no gear support.
A never before attempted challenge with a distance and time goal so tough, it leaves no margin for error.
 
Vegas In 24, benefiting the Pink Lotus Foundation, was created by Andy Funk to raise funds for uninsured, underinsured and underprivileged women who cannot pay for the screening, diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer on their own. Rather than focusing on research or finding the “cure to cancer” like so many nonprofits, Andy wants to help women who have potentially life threatening medical needs today but cannot afford to receive treatment.
