I was doing fight club while y’all were doing 9H , but it was SO FUN to hear Lisa cheering us on (and it was surprising how many intervals coincided between the two). Thank Jared Jason and LIsa for organizing!! I’m going to try a live stream maybe for stage 6, the kid’s going to set me up on Twitch… Maybe some will join in!

I’ll definitely follow you on Twitch. I’m streaming all mine and am always SO grateful to the Sufferlandrians who pop in and cheer me on, especially for the last efforts when I really need it

Hah, I wondered how the intervals would line up! Glad you got some cheering bonus from 9Hammers aligning with FightClub! Nice work!

Thank you for the awesome group suffering!
That was my first SUF group ride and I can’t thank you enough. I was able to really put the HAMMER down thanks to all the cowbell and encouragement.

Suffer well!

Absolute pleasure to have you all!!! We had 13 riders, a couple of supportive spectators, a commentator and two Sufferfest/Wahoo VIPs for group ride 2.

Thank you SO much everyone for donating and coming along, that was awesome!!!

Some photos because a picture tells a thousand words:

Sir @gpsjared and Sir @David.McQuillen.KoS got us started! Thank you for firing the starting pistol and supporting this mad group ride, we really appreciate it!

Spiderman even made an appearance. Hate to break it to you all, but Spiderman is actually a hammer crushing woman!!! Ann rode the WHOLE of Nine Hammers in a full body spiderman outfit…attached fingers and all! LEGEND!!!

There was so much power pouring out from our brave riders that one even got a puncture!

And a final shot of those faces of relief masked with pain as they all pushed through that last hammer into the cool down!!! An absolute privilege to watch so much suffering all at once!!!

Well done everyone! Same again tomorrow? :grin:

Thanks everyone for the company on the journey through The Valley of the Nine Hammers! It was great to do the ride with you.

Thanks @DameLisa and @DancingCyclist for organising this, and thanks @DameLisa for the encouragement and the cowbell throughout the workout.

Mental note: don’t try riding the 8th hammer standing all the way…ever…again. :slight_smile:

Oh, and for anyone wondering, yes, Sir Gerry’s 'tache remained intact for the entire 9 Hammers! Impressive!

This stage was awesome as I do like 9 Hammers (GVA Approved) and with all of you it was even better … however when in a group with big energy like this one … one can go a tad too hard … possibly … please be on the lookout for my legs … both of them … I will need them for tomorrow at the ummm “club” … :rofl:

Sir Gerry, unfortunately my Labrador appears to have gnawed on one of them. I managed to rescue it for you before he did too much damage though!

Here you are!
