Bonsoir,

Je ne comprends pas trop le sens de la deuxième partie de la deuxième phrase. Je ne vois pas le sens de aufnehmen (défier?) et ce que "es" reprend. Merci à tous.

"Gibt doch seit Sommer 2010 die permanente Zeitmessanlage Auskunft über die persönliche Bestzeit. Sportliche Bergradler nehmen es auch mit der Runde um das Kitzbüheler Horn auf, mit jener um den Wilden Kaiser oder gar mit der Gerlos-Runde.

Explanation:
Le "es" n'est pas à traduire, il fait partie de l'expression. Quand au reste, ce sont des montagnes où les cyclistes sportifs vont régulièrement se casser des côtes dans le Tyrol (downhill, tour d'Autriche).
