🌋🚴‍♂️🌋 UNITE CITIZENS of SUFFERLANDRIA for the TOUR 2024 🌋🚴‍♂️🌋

Challenges and Achievements The Wahooligan Tour
227

I have to admit to feeling deflated by seeing this. I was feeling so good after finding my legs again on The Model, and, having dropped behind GMT to accomodate work, I was starting to think about using that amoazing Sufferlandrian Time Machine again to speed up time. If I ride the Wahoo Route Stage 6 tonight, I could theoretically do the Sufferlandrian Stages 6 & 7 back to back tomorrow… and finish the dual route Tour on my local time.

It would “only” take riding The Downward Spiral, Boswell’s Creemee Ride and High Time back to back, a total of just under 3 hours after 7 consecutive days of riding…

If only I had the motivation… but I feel so deflated by the hooligan :cry:
I’d really like one of those DPF jerseys you get from hitting $500 fundraising, but I’m some way off:
2024 The Wahooligan Tour: Mr. Sir Stephen Barrett, KoS - Davis Phinney Foundation

But if we cannot rely on the DPF website as @emacdoug indicates, how do we know who is truly ahead?

Not a very level playing field when the owner of the company increases the Team’s fundraising by nearly 50%… bit more than surging… More like a motor in the bottom bracket…
Sorry, just being a whingeing pom (as the autralians would say)

If I adopt a conspiratorial mindset, I’d say the CEO loves his Wahooligan term and knows exactly how his big donation will be received by those of us who are Citizens of Sufferlandria. I’m just gobsmacked that he wouldn’t think, “these are people who’ve sent cash monthly or yearly and are hoping to continue to do that-- in other words, my best customers. Why would I just want to piss them off?” Alas

Nah, I don’t think there’s any deliberate “conspiracy” here I just think it’s done without thinking, kind of like mindless hooliganism :wink: But it will be DPF who miss out next year if there’s no Sufferlandrian Team
:cry:

Of course, being the official beneficiaries, and therefore referees, Team DPF might still flag the play and deem such a move to be a technical infringment hence removing it from the Team total…

So @emacdoug liked my comment, but he made no reply.
Maybe he learnt something from you and @Glen.Coutts?

According to my Full Frontal from last week my 4DP weakness is V02. I think it’s been my weakness for a while.

I started replying, but got distracted by work. :slight_smile:

My initial possibilities are:

  • The Chores
  • Told Off by Angels (Mash-Up)
  • The Downward Spiral
  • Revolver
  • Do As You’re Told

Those are good choices, but my thought was The Omnium.

Will you ride the Omnium all April if you reach your $500 goal?

Can it be considered conspiracy if part of the reason I chose not to ride the tour this year was because I had a feeling that no matter what the Sufferlandrian team(s) did, Wahoo would come in a drop of a load of money to show that they were superior to us in some way, shape or form? Kind of like, can’t beat them, demoralize them?
