I saw the problems Lee had, and saw that she'd scratched, but then it seemed strange that she then continued to the end without going back to the place she originally left the course. If she had could she not have still got a place in the GC?
I wasn't sure what was going on with Rickie as she appeared to be on course for almost the whole route until near the end, and then also showed as taking an alternative route.
I guess that explains it though. :)

Lee Craigie and Rickie Cotter haven't "finished Tour Divide" as the Adventure Syndicate twitter claims, they were both DQed. Rickie rode the entire GDMBR route, but took a lift back up Boreas pass after she missed the Gold Dust trail (required for South Bound riders) and Lee didn't ride the whole route.
It fucks me off that they are wording it as if they've finished.
