Someone with a very similar username to mine appears to a SE rep for retrobike...

*coughs*

I've got shitload of retro stuff.

Let me know if you can think of anything specific a d I'll dig around in the many boxes of tat

Brill!

Really nice quote from James H in his insta stories about Liam.

Well done, what an amazing ride Liam. Well done to Andrew and James. Josh not far now either

So he should finish just before 8pm.

Noooo, say it isn't so

So Liam's got 25ish miles to go and 2 and a bit hours to do it?

I need a montage and some soft rock/country music

40 miles to go!

I hope so!

i'm surprised at that, I thought it would be more than 12. I wonder if he'll make it in one, that was a short nap earlier.

I hope Shell is alright, I love watching his rides

If you don't have an account: there's a lot of pushing, it looks wet and James is cutting holes in his shoes so they drain faster.

Good spot, ty atk

Josh finally sleeping? Or is it more tracker blips..?

James H has barely slept either, I think Liam is winning on position and amount of sleep!

- Chris Pitblado - crank/chainring issues
- Robbie Lyall - no reason given

That's a shame about Chris, he was going really well

Mr Ibbett appearing out of nowhere on the tracker! I thought he was kipping

Sorry to see you out Karl. Rest up.

Liam is on the chase!

Not cows again I hope

I didn't want to ask

Noooooo, what happened to Karl?

He’s going to get to Contin at this rate After Contin there are a few shelters (wood sheds etc). I can imagine they might be a good target to aim for. The trouble is that there are a couple (JH and JI) who might intend to ride through and aim to sleep tomorrow night instead. Have to agree with that...

Damn

Especially as when they pass you look at that rear cassette and see just one cog

Agreed, it's astonishing. I'm assuming there's some pretty amazing elevation figures too? Can't quite see a way of figuring it out from trackleaders
