Waldy Challenge 2025 - April - Hit those Hills



Welcome to April's Challenge


Time to get the climbing legs prepared for Tour by Bagging Some Cols. As always there is a mixture of familiar hills and some not so. Some will be covered on our Sunday rides, 4 will form the cornerstone of Luke’s Easter Monday Octopus and some will require you to travel to new places (although not that far away).


The list of Cols with their respective segments are below ranging from easy to very tough - you’ll need legs of steel to conquer them all.

A maximum of 5 points can be obtained.


Bonus points claimed are on an honesty basis and input into the google spreadsheet via the website. Navigate to the Waldy Challenge page and in the middle right of the page, press add bonuses; you will then be taken to the google sheet. 


Get in touch with your challenge master Luke Phillips if you need help entering your scores or want to query any levels. 


p.s. for anybody wondering what bagging a col means - it means riding up a hill.
