I read an article in which Mike has said that his schedule hit some important milestones in terms of resupply and parts of the route at key times.
I guess we will just have to see how that plays out with the leaders ahead of his schedule

His tracking is pinging every 20mins whilst some of the other used a much faster rate of every 10 or even 5 mins.

Re: HT550 2023
I’m trying to work out who’s the leading lady?
Due to timing of tracker updates it’s hard to work out?

Re: HT550 2023
Just checking the tracker this morning - looks like James Hayden has double backed to Inchbae Lodge.
Hope he’s ok, was going great
Edit - good to see Kurt start this morning

Alan’s probably your best bet for the GPX file.
I stopped the night before at the ByTheWay campsite and left my van there (for a tenner)

Anyone noticed there is an ITT going on - Richard Wilson.
He’s storming it, started yesterday morning and already onto the top loop.

Re: Anyone got any experiences with Planet X Sleeping bags?
If you’re looking for lightweight sleeping then a quilt might fit the bill.
I’ve got a cumulus one, and it packs smaller/lighter for same temp rating

Re: 22g Stove - how much meths?
I found if you spill a little on the outside before you light it then it acts as a preheat when cold.

WRT Thank You’s
Thank you Stu and Dee, I had a great WRT and that lemon drizzle at the end was just fab.
Also thanks to Karl and Cat - a great atmosphere on the Lonely Hearts
Washing machine on, bike clean so now time for a brew and sit down
