So, you’re going to ride Kitchen Sink and THEN ride Defender at 100%? Wow!

I think you misinterpreted Sir Glen’s intent. He is going to bookend with Defender BOTH before and after Kitchen Sink. As a Knight, there could be no other explanation.

Ah yes, that does make more sense. Such a dedicated knight certainly wouldn’t make plans for anything less. :+1:

The SUFday prep is going well here… managed ISLAGIATT at 100% all the way this morning through for the 1st time in living memory. #morethanyou :blush:

Bring on Sunday SUFday, it’s bound to be a Funday!!

Didn’t think through the impact of a mid plan Half Monty increasing FTP and MAP a few days ahead of the impending Sufferlandrian National Day :grimacing:

I guess I’ve also increased the size of the post ride recovery meal too, so there’s a silver lined :doughnut: to spur me on…

I have also just had a mid plan half monty increase, and then my plan has given me ISLAGIATT on the Saturday so LOTS of glorious suffering for me.

Looks like you’ll also need to ride The Cure right after that. :wink:

I’m also an attacker and Defender is one of my toughest workouts. That being said, I should put it on my calendar to keep up my suffering.

Well, I’m sure I won’t regret this but here it is. The long awaited schedule for my SUF Day 2023.

Defender + Violator + Defender

Y’all can go ahead and do Kitchen Sink as planned while I wish I’d have joined you, but, as they say:

why not squeeze in Kitchen Sink too? or else GvA will be very disappointed. alas my humble suggestion:
Defender - Violator - Defender - Kitchen Sink - Defender (remember the bookshelf principle)

evil laugh :grin:

WOW!! That is evil. GvA would be proud (of you Dame @IsiSchneider_KoS, if you’d recce this route and report back :smiling_imp:)

Also, the suggestion deadline has passed but thank you SO much for thinking of me :slight_smile:

Out of curiosity, all at 100%?

Or is that a dumb/un-SUF question?

Defender: The Start of Something Really Stoooopid
I’ve done Defender precisely 5 times since being released and only once was it completed at 100% so, yes, of course 100% :face_vomiting:

Violator: What The SUF Was I Thinking
This will be done in level mode as always and I’ll give it the beans on every sprint :face_vomiting::face_vomiting:

Defender: The Finale
GvA knows what the intensity level will be but one thing is certain, I can guarantee 100% Suffering. :dizzy_face: :skull::coffin::headstone:

If I may make a suggestion, Level mode for 100% suffering may be the best option for The Finale

Thanks Sir. One day I will do that. For SUF day though, I wanna see just how often and to what degree I dial, ummmm, up the intensity on this GvA forsaken ride.

Not sure if this is right for me to say… I am not actually looking forward for this ride on Sunday. :grimacing:
But regardless, I will just get on with it.

I’m looking forward to finishing it! (And getting the badge for All Sufferfest!)

I still have a long way to go to getting the All SUF badge though 47/60 SUF rides completed so far :zipper_mouth_face:
