Yeah so about hammer 8 WTH what the hell was that anyway.

Best pre and post ride hoodie ever … the stache is my strength weapon.

Just woken up after the evening 9H suffering with you guys. WHY did I have a cadence of 50 during hammer 7 and then stand the entire way through hammer 8?! Will have to spend most of the day explaining to people at work why I’m walking weirdly… And then get on the bike again for some… fun.

It was great though! I’d certainly be keen if any more of these are arranged.

I think my legs feel the same @timH - and I have to do Fight Club in about an hour :hot_face:. It was great that you could join us today/last night! We’re thinking of a Stage later in the Tour for another group ride. Open to all. Still need to sort a few things out - we’ll let you know! Be good if we could get another one in!

Apologies, I got a little too over enthusiastic “encouraging” you all to stand for the WHOLE of Hammer 8. Less cowbell next time, I promise!

And yes, we’re keen for another group ride, but I might ride too this time. We can all cheer each other on! Maybe an hour earlier so I can ride too?

Oh my have I just paid for yesterday or what! Legs UTTERLY f***ed even with massively dialled down Fight club numbers… food and bed!

Well done for getting through it Tim!!! I found FightClub tough too! But Stage 4 felt WAAAAY better! Just don’t tell GvA!

Hi folks, after the successful stage 2 group ride, we’re keen to host another, open to all. @DancingCyclist and I will be riding stage 7, but you’re welcome to ride whatever stage you like. Join us on Google Meet, times as per the image below. Will be Friday everywhere, bar the NZ/Australia times which are Saturday morning.

The meeting will open 15 minutes before the hour

Hope to see you there!!

It certainly was, so sorry you missed it! Was a bit of a last minute call to arms! There was much suffering

Howdy everyone!

Just wanted to thank everyone for fundraising and joining us for the group ride. The Tour is well on its way to smashing even our wildest expectations, and we couldn’t have done it without the every victory counts attitude on display from everyone involved.

I also wanted to update everyone that I’m working with Rupert (Wahoo’s ToS whisperer) and Rebecca (from the DPF) to make sure those who took down the participant prizes receive credit in the raffle pool.

Congrats to those below

  • Alan Adams
  • Geoff Mather
  • Frank Wirtz
  • Tim Huges
  • Ann Rivera
  • Michael Jones
  • Gerry Stephenson
  • Wayne Lewis
  • Chris Whitbeck
  • Jim Allison
  • Laura Chutny

Apologies from the missing Sir/Dame titles, my knowledge of the names on the Scrolls is not as current as it once was.

@gpsjared thank you for organizing the group ride, for me as first timer, it was a great experience to see the sufferlandrian spirit at work, made suffering a lot easier
