Having look at the map last night and noticed Mikko was quite a way off to get to cp4 in time. Looks like he’s absolutely smashed it and is just coming into it now. Amazing.
Yeah, he said this was the first time the checkpoint closing time was set so that for someone that was just on time on the previous CP, it was relavitely really hard to reach the next one before it's closed. And he had to climb over a mountain on a gravel road he didn't know what to expect of.
Now he's on the parcours to the finish! As is my mate Kim, happy for that.
Mikko put quite a spurt on to finish last year. He passed me right after the end of the CP4 parcours and rode through the night straight to the finish. Looks like he's had to do the same again this time.
