Surprising - they are both very experienced.
Becoming a bit like Lael Wilcox / Evan Deutsch.
Riding together for a few hours is fine but I don't believe anyone is that evenly matched and has identical eating, sleeping and stopping requirements for several days.
Of course, it's not possible to see exactly what they are doing from a tracker. There may be a few hundred metres gap, but the fact that they frequently leapfrog each other on the tracker doesn't give any support for that.Edit - just looked again and there now seems to be 10km between them. Looks better!
