Transcontinental Race (London - Istanbul) - #TCRNo4

@hippy making good progress in Montenegro, moved up 2 places in the last hour.

Hippy only 61km off the last CP

C'mon hippy! Storming ride so far.

#blackgoochesmatter

Fucking hell @Hippy has put a shift in!

and skinny's doubled Ultan and looks to be 3rd place?

What a difference a day makes-must be some seriously tired cats out there...

#didn'tdoSkinnyanyharm coming back from scratching last year. Go Alex Wright!

mate, seriously?

Has the race been won yet ?

45km left to CP4 for hippy

An unmanaged border crossing - rather interesting!

126km to go.

106 now. He's going to win by a day and a half if not two.

96 now

Although the tracker is estimating 6 hours, subject to ferries, I think he will be there by noon our time 2pm local time. Why would you stop unless in extremis during that last dash?

81

Battle for second hotting up, Carlos and Neil are on the same road and within 25ish km of each other, skinny a little way back up the same road.

51

Money on skinny for second now.

Kristoph will win by 600km+

46

Are you dressed, or have you just been in your dressing gown, pants, and slippers all week? Watching blue dots, beard growing, Mrs cleat and the kids shaking their heads and wiping the cornflakes out of your beard?

38

At airport. Will miss the finish as we will be in the air unless he sprints the last few km.

Tweet him to tell him that.

PS thanks for the updates, upset for Alex but more selfishly Im distraught at the thought of this being over. Who else can we follow in the rear?

32 - on plane. Take off in 15.

It is not over by a long way. At least two more weeks of heroism.

If he has delays with the ferry I may catch the end. Not sure how long flight is.
