🥁🥁🥁 Official Route Announcement for the Wahooligan Tour 🥁🥁🥁

Challenges and Achievements The Wahooligan Tour
1

Thank you everyone for your patience, I am proud to present to you the official route of the 2023 Wahooligan Tour

Taking you beyond the borders of Sufferlandria into the world of Wahoo X, this 7-day event will see you ride over 8 hours indoors testing your mental toughness and physical limits — all to benefit the @davisphinneyfnd and their quest to help people with Parkinson’s live well today.

Formerly the Tour of Sufferlandria, the expanded Wahooligan Tour features stages across Wahoo SYSTM and Wahoo RGT, welcoming more riders to take on the challenge and raise more money for the Davis Phinney Foundation than ever before. Participants have raised over one and a half million dollars since the first Tour began in 2013!

Stage 1: The Sufferfest - Cash Register + Revolver

Stage 2: The Sufferfest - Attacker

Stage 3: A Week With Neal Henderson - Rabbit Mountain

Stage 4: On Location Portugal - Nazare to Foz do Arelho

Stage 5: ProRide - Tour de Suisse Women 2 (coming soon!)

Stage 6: A Week With UCI World Cycling Center - Road

Stage 7: To Get To The Other Side workout on RGT Stelvio - *

*We would love you to come and experience RGT with us and close out the Tour in some group rides. However if you would like to complete the Tour just on SYSTM, you can Ride the To Get To The Other Side workout there and still get your Wahooligant Tour 2023 Badge.

The plan is also available for you to load on SYSTM:

Thanks for this Rupert. I presume there’s only one version of this unlike previous years where there has been different options, e.g. focused, nuclear, etc?

Correct, everyone is riding the same Tour this year

This year, our Wahoo Sports Science Team has created a route that is challenging, but should be possible for everyone. They recommend hitting each stage at the suggested efforts, but reducing the intensity on days when you feel you need more recovery.

I kind of miss the more comedy/less serious style of announcement from years gone by.

ok, so what you’re saying is DON’T do full frontal between now and then?

I believe he’s implying we need to do it twice. Once before the tour training plan, and once more a day before the tour.

On ios (iPhone) clicking this link opened SYSTM successfully but took me to an a completely different page to do with workouts rather than a plan. Think that automation may be a bit broken.
I’ll report this separately

Can we take a minute to appreciate that stage 1 is probably going to make people question if they’ll even get through the whole tour.

It’s beautiful! :smiling_face_with_tear:

Got to love the Attacker :smiley: and it’s personally and inspirational ride for me especially towards the end watching Julian Alaphilippe taking the stage.

When you load the tour on to your calendar, the final ride says to go to RGT and load up the ride. Is it there yet? If so, where might that be?

So far, I have tried searching for the ride on RGT but nothing seems to turn up. Am I missing something?

Hey Sirs @DarrenWCKam and @Critmark. Nope not on RGT yet. They will have to create event(s) for this and have the workout embedded as part of it. I’ve not done a group workout on RGT before but I have created a workout, uploaded it and ridden it myself (as a solo group “event”)

I say events because they’ll have to accommodate people riding it anywhere in the world during the 50 hour window so I’d presume they’ll have to coordinate who will lead the rides in each event, whether anyone can lead more than one in the 50 hour window etc as well as set the workout profile and targets. It should be interesting to see how they get this done.
