Ha, right! ;)
Probably should have renamed it for sake of it. To Race across australia or something. So it at least wasn't connected in any way.

I've said before I'm not convinced (personal opinion) that Jesse did enough to be able to say he had cancelled the race, if things were to come to it. But, I'm not a lawyer, he is no fool and will have taken legal advice on it and he may be right.
Changing 'race' to 'ride' wouldn't make a difference to Jesse as he has said it's nothing to do with him whatever it is called.
I really hope that there are no incidents and that none of this ends up mattering.
I also hope, for Jesse, that he is able to put it on properly next year. He's put loads of work into it and spent a lot of money, and all he's got to show for it is one of the top guys dead on the road and an event he can't put on. He deserves a better outcome than that.

Mapprogress is a separate entity, like Trackleaders. It's run by a guy called Shane from NZ, who is the main tracker hirer down under. The site was set up before Jesse pulled the plug, he denies it is anything to do with him!
