First ultra endurance event and too big a leap from what she has done before to this I think.
Her position wasn't too low but when she switched from her road bike to her TT bike she was immediately having neck trouble and we have watched as it slowly developed.

Why didn't you move her off the TT bike? Why isn't she riding the TT bike all the time?

I hope she can continue but Shermers doesn't look fun to me. If it happens to me I'm out. No fucking way I'm taping my head up and/or ruining my neck to finish a ride.

She used a road bike on the difficult climbs and the TT bike on the easier roads. That might have been a mistake as the positions weren't that similar. Anyway we have modded the road bike and she is back on it, heading for the halfway point.
