Karl OK? Tracker doesn't seem to be updating for him. Giaocomo still seems to be making progress, so I'm assuming so.

Karl Booth? Moving at 19kph just now. 377km in

Odd, still not showing as moving for me (no activity in 24 hours). 377km like yours. He's unlikely to be there though as his partner is a big distance ahead (547km).

Annoyingly their tracking page also doesn't remember your favourites etc.

Edit - ...and also apparently not showing the tips on startup.

But is that not for Monday 16:08 local time.

Giacomo according to me is at 547km as of Tuesday 17:54 local time (that is now)

OK , never looked at the date, sorry. Yeah his name is greyed out in the rider list, but not struck through... Dunno...

I am reliably informed that Karl is with Giacamo & they are both passed CowPat1.

Karl managed to loose his passport but it must have floated past on a flying carpet because he has found it again - He'd left it in his handbag apparently

Looks like Rich & Shona have this little descent in a few km's time.....

Really does look like an incredible place.

looks stunning

Lee still seems to be at the camp thing.

Still no movement from Lee...

I assume she's there overnight at this point for whatever reason.

Edit - Ouch, Jay's snuck off in the night and is currently headed up a 25.9% gradient. No wonder he's not making quick progress!
Edit 2 - Looks like Rickie and Naomi have taken the shortcut between 255km and 366km.

& it would appear Lee has gone off sight seeing.

Do you think Lee is trying to take a short cut to the east of the lake to rejoin the route?? Not that I can see any track or anything at all where see is on the satellite! Maybe an eagles got her tracker

Obviously not still in the 'race' presumably her gut issues got the better of her?

From the podcast I think Rickie and Naomi were pretty much planning to anyway to rejoin the route with others.

Definitely can't see a track where she is. Odd.

Lee is back on course now. Seems like she missed out a big chunk of road and went through a mountain pass on a tiny or non-existent track instead. Definitely interesting sightseeing!

It'll be interesting hear the story behind this.
Maybe she set up a new segment on Strava

If that was a decision made by choice and not forced upon her by unfortunate circumstance, then I take my hat off to her

It wouldn't be like Lee to take a wrong turn.....

At least it wasn't this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKAusMNTNnk

Jesus. =/

Seems like Naomi and Rickie have split up now. Great that they got back into the ride though.

Looks like Lee Craigie has scratched, probably down to the bad dose of the squits she talked about the other day

looks to me like she is still riding, but with the short cut she will be off the official stats so that might be why she has a cross through her name

Yeh, I'm assuming she's just riding not racing now. She's out the race with that diversion. Shame, but what a place to go for a ride!
