The Wahooligan Tour STAGE 2: The Sufferfest - Attacker

The Wahooligan Tour STAGE 2: The Sufferfest - Attacker
Monday March 13

Welcome to Stage 2 of the Wahooligan Tour. Please use the thread to tell us about how your Tour is going so far!


Welcome to Stage 2! Today, you’re the Attacker. Being able to finish strong comes from properly pacing your efforts and preparing to finish strong. This session is all about improving those abilities. For just over 50 minutes, you’ll tackle five different six-minute long, progressive efforts that start just below FTP and finish well above it for the final minute.

Remember, you have 50 hours to complete each stage. As long as it’s still today’s date anywhere on earth, you’re golden. Check out the Tour Challenge Page for details on stage open and close times.


You never ride alone.

Wahooligans unite! Join us on the Official RGT open road for your warm-ups, cool downs, or stage rides. Use the voice chat feature to talk about your Tour experiences so far with fellow riders.


NEW for 2023 - Daily Challenges!

During each day of The Tour, the top fundraiser of the previous 24 hours will earn a Wahooligan Tour jersey, custom created by our friends at Cuore!

#4DOESMORE! Barely survived.

I was wondering who is featured in more Sufferfest videos, Nibali (the Shark), or Alaphilippe?

@Erik-KOS My guess is that Julian Alaphilippe appears more frequently but in my opinion Vincenzo Nibali definitely has the best cameos.

My personal favourites in the Sufferfest library as it tends to charge up my will power despite the adversities I have encountered just over 2 years ago especially towards the end of the video watching Alaphillippe attacking the Jakobson. The song Survivor never fails to bring tears to my eyes.

On to the next stage tomorrow!

After Attacker. Thank you to everyone who got me over the threshold for stage 2 in the goat outfit. I love you all. :nauseated_face:

After the double dose of pain on Stage 1, today’s stage was… painful.

Stage 3 will be thoroughly brutal tomorrow… but, if we survive that, we get rewarded with what is almost a rest day on Stage 4 and Stage 5 doesn’t look too bad either.

I think it depends on the vid and years. Lots of them with Tom Voeckler, seems to Cancellerà pops up in few too.

A little worried about this after how I felt at the end of stage 1, but this felt … ( dare I say it) easy. Really never doubted I was going to finish a new actually could have probably done more. But it’s only day 2, gonna hold off on the heroics.
