Welcome to day 8 of the 2024 Silk Road Mountain Race.

Today brings a full men’s podium and an unforgettable climb up the infamous Soviet Road. Starting the day at the peaceful CP2 yurt camp, riders faced a brutal 20% grade ascent that many were eager to put behind them. As the day progressed, we shifted focus to those still en route to CP2, fighting to make the cutoff in an inspiring display of resilience.
