FINISH

(guess he's more crazed like Captain Haddock rather than tee-total Tin Ten)

Well done @hippy!

for the metrics amongst us, that's 625 miles from Sunday evening, in about three days (over five-and-a-half DDs, back-to-back... #inspiring)

@hippy, surely you're ready for the Transcontinental!!

(apologies if missed the posts about you riding this already!!)

I had to leave @scultura at Villaines as he was broken and a kip didn't help. Tried to egg him on but the poor bloke had left everything on the road. I left and went a bit mental but then fell asleep at the next control and slept through my alarms! Some woman woke me and with a dead arm I ran out to my bike asking which way Paris was! Saw Adrian TransCon and then bashed the final two sections, soloing past tonnes of broken looking people. Road bike + adamo did bad thing to me. Couldn't sit properly for last 10k. Enjoyed first 12hrs in mental bunch, but we lost it at control then it all went dhit. Second day was good fun just tapping out easy pace in nice weather. Next night I was enjoying until losing @scultura and no idea how long I was out for. Skip controls and there's massive time saving to be had. Is there a PBP perm? :)

Where are you @scultura?

I am currently vat mortagne au perche. Hands don't work well enough to use a knife and fork. Kipping til 3 then head fit Paris hopefully just inside 90 hours

Chapeau to all the forum riders! Good fucking job.

I'm thinking I might try to do the next one to put two fingers up at turning 40, but it'll definitely be full value...

Come on Ludders! Do it for Norths,

and North Saxony.

and North Saxony.

Ludwig wouldn't have any time for Niedersachsen, but for North Rhine-Westphalia. :)

You should try to become less dependent on scultura (then again, I know that culture's anathema to Australians).

64km left. 4 hours. Should be fine, but pissing down. Ho hum

Nearly there... Allez!

congratulations @fussballclub,

@Arvy. Ludders has lasted the distance!!

Pissing down this morning. Feel for riders still arriving!

pretty sure he's relates to Bavarain royalty (that chap who built the fancy castle and was a little mad!),

can you kindly pass on some sentiment to @fussballclub, for at least myself and @Arvy., something with a swear word or two in it!?

Ha arrivee. biblical rain, it must have woken some of the "road potatoes" up ( space blanket wrapped verge sleepers). Going to eat non stop now.

Chapeau @graunch
