Okay!
It's still early, and it's all to play or. However, the strong are starting to emerge, pulling out a lead of 100miles on the next group. The first place guy, Ben, I think he'll blow, his sleep pattern must be hurting him, having done a 30h stint. The next 4 are all sleeping consitenty and making faster progress, I'd expect those 4 to start pulling away more, in the next 4 days.
Interestingly the next 4, so 5-9 on the road have bad sleep patterns and are riding slower, they were the top 4 at one point but are suffering a bit. Either they'll catch up on some sleep and regain strength, or start to fade over the next 5 days back into the 2nd group on the road.
I think Mike's record is on the shelf, and those trying to hold a schedule to beat it, will suffer.
Ben's 40h stint!! And 5h sleep. On move again.
