Challenges and Achievements The Wahooligan Tour
1

Hey Everyone :waving_hand:

The Wahooligan Tour will return in 2026 for its final edition in its current format. With that in mind, this year is about bringing the community together one more time to celebrate the challenge, the shared experience, and everything the Tour has represented over the years — all in aid of the Davis Phinney Foundation.

Since the first event in 2013, the Sufferlandrian & Wahooligan community has raised an incredible $2.3 million to support people living with Parkinson’s and help fund programs that allow them to live well today.

:date: When & How It Works

The 2026 Tour will take place March 1–7, 2026, complete all 7 stages on Wahoo SYSTM to earn your badge!
All stages will be open for the full 7 days, so you have a little more flexibility to complete them (though we recommend riding 1 per day).

:heart: Why We Ride (and Fundraise)

  • Raise $400 PRE-TOUR ONLY to earn a cycling cap
  • Raise $250 to earn a Team DPF socks
  • Raise $500 to earn a Team DPF cycling jersey
  • Raise $1500 to earn a Wahoo Tour Poster
  • Raise $3000 to earn Top Fundraiser status AND Invitation to the Annual Fète

The Tour has always been about pushing ourselves — but it’s also about giving back.

$20 USD gets you registered. After that, fundraising is up to you, every dollar counts! Big or small, it all adds up to real support for people living with Parkinson’s

Share your “why,” rally friends and family, and turn your suffering into something that truly matters.

:memo: How to Sign Up

  • Registration is now OPEN
  • Register through the official Davis Phinney website to setup your fundraising page
  • Make sure your SYSTM subscription is active so you’re ready to ride and can up your training

:person_lifting_weights: Want to Prepare?

A dedicated 4-week training plan will start on February 2, 2026.
It’s built to help you show up to Tour week ready — physically, mentally, and ready to crush it

:person_biking: How to Take Part

  1. Register with your $20 donation
  2. Raise what you can (every dollar helps)
  3. Follow the training plan starting Feb 2
  4. Ride the stages during Tour week March 1–7
  5. Share the wins, the pain, and the purpose with the community

This year is about turning pedals with purpose and closing out an incredible tradition together — for ourselves, for each other, and for a cause that matters.

See you out there :flexed_biceps::person_biking:

erm… sorry, but no. The first Wa*** Tour took place in 2023. Before that, it was called the Tour of SUFFERLANDRIA

Did the first one before it was cool; will do the last one now that the lava has cooled and it has become the stuff of legends. See you at numerous flogging stations and at the Chamois and holy water doping Control Station after each stage.

Had the same thought.

Don’t worry…the Rebel Route will be coming soon(ish) :smiling_imp:
Although hopefully somebody with graphics skills will make a poster with the correct spelling.

What on GvA’s scorched earth could Sir Joe, of all people, have possibly said that would be “flagged” by the community?

Seriously?! :man_facepalming:t3:

I have the same question sir Glen, that cannot be right.

I know I have accidentally hit the flag button before (trying to bookmark) but been able to back out before it flags.

I sincerely hope, given I was in this thread earlier, that I didn’t accidentally hit that silly flag :face_with_peeking_eye:
