Well this past Sunday concluded the Tour of Sufferlandria. The tour was pretty amazing overall. I pushed as hard as I could, I set several personal bests, and I met a lot of cool people. There really was a lot of community around this event! I’m happy that the riding is over and I’m enjoying a couple days of recovery as my legs are absolutely shot. I figured I’d take a moment and summarize the numbers for myself so I had them all to look at in one place! Now I have a year to prepare for next year’s tour! I’m also considering my Knighthood. That’s probably the most fiendish title ever devised. How do you become a Knight of Sufferlandria? Well, you simply select 10 Sufferfest videos, line up a lot of water and food, and ride all 10 back to back in one shot!
