Transcontinental Race (London - Istanbul) - #TCRNo4

@skinny having rested for 36 hours is now 500km behind the leader. Makes one think how things might have been if he hadn't fallen sick.

It's not often you actually lol when you say lol - and I did the same when I saw the tweet - absolute classic

This. Next year hopefully we'll find out

How old is @skinny ? Not very and so he can only improve.

Joe @bananaskid is only 20 and won't hit his endurance prime for ages. Great things can be expected of him

it would be great be able to select certain rider numbers and do a timelap once this is all over.

Once a dotwatcher, always a dotwatcher. :)

Hippo seems to have overtaken skinny again overnight. He's also moved up a few places, to 11th. I imagine skinny must have been resting.

And Emilia, amazingly, is lying in 31st. She must be really determined after having had to scratch last year.

The gap would be less had he worn his tarty trip-socks (sorry @skinny )

I'm guessing the scissors tweet is something to do with his undercracker region.

Seems a bit extreme, but then again - super aero.

Yes my mistake. he's on top of someone. I didnt zoom in enough #shitdotwatcherssay

I like #tcarse as a new trending hashtag.

Llama!!

Gafyn Meredith #100 has broken his cock

How does the run-in to the finish work? Is the ferry permitted, or do the racers have to travel through Istanbul?

If skinny keeps this up he looks a decent bet for 2nd place, which is absolutely nuts. 200km to make up, which based on the last 36 hours is doable provided he doesn't burn out. Such a shame. We could have had a proper race on our hands.

He's made it into the top 10. Amazing effort.

Wow. Go @skinny, what a guy!

But awesome effort from all the forum riders, go go go!

Hope your arse doesn't actually fall off @hippy.

Incredibe stuff from skinny. At a guess he has been the fastest rider by a considerable margin since he restarted. Surely this surge will cost him in a day or two though?

#116 looking like he's taking a different route from others. Interesting.
