Waldy Challenge 2026 - July - Tour de France

It’s time for the cycling event of the year and an opportunity for big Waldy challenge points. The TDF is here.

This month's challenge is a chance to earn big and shake up the standings with no maximum points. 

The scoring is simple (and the same as last year):

1pt for every 1500 metres climbed in July.

and 

1pt for every 200 kilometres ridden in July.

e.g. Ride 2000 kms and climb 7500m and earn 15 points. 

Only rides outdoors count (no e-bikes) but they can be anywhere e.g. UK or Overseas. Rides of any length/elevation contribute to the totals at the end of the month.

There are no monthly bonus points this month and points are to be claimed by midnight on 3rd of August 2026.

Ongoing bonus points claimed are on an honesty basis and to be 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.
