Do people use things like modafinil in these kind of events?

Yeh they have snow forecast for Thursday on the route just to spice it up

Haha, juju has got over her illness and gone back to Perth and started all over again! Smashed out 800km in first 36 hours

Ah just seen

CylingMaven was saying similar in his video earlier, that he was happy he quit his job as those who had taken time off work were voicing concerns as the headwinds had destroyed their planned schedules and finishing in time was looking impossible, rubbish situation

was there a video or something to said sad on?

What a great finish

One of the videos earlier, said up until Adelaide Kristoff claimed to of slept 7hrs, wtf?

Sounds like the bike mechanic just fucked up and a cable was loose after they did some work on his bike

Yeh Mike is stuck in big ring supposedly...

Blame durianrider

Just caught to with the official videos from last night, basically confirms what that dude says about mike, some health and bike problems. Also said he's running a standard double with a 25 cassette,I get that given the terrain they just covered but is that not a bold move for the terrain to come? Or is he just massively strong? Or thought he'd be leading and able to forfeit some time in the hills?

Yeh I'm following him, cracking human. Can't believe how he appears to be going backwards but only because the front are opening up so much, feels days ago Kristoff was at the nullabor. Shame rhino isn't with him more, guys hilarious.

Seems a non race but fun way he's doing it as in a little group now and sharing rooms together

Lol, not sure you should make #meatrider a thing though...

Not good for mike if true

Wiggle have two in stock...

I was wondering about coverage, how much they like every man and his dog filming them for YouTube and how much they just want to be left alone. Enjoying cycling mavens updates from the road but the main guy posting on Facebook for indypac seems proper intrusive and insensitive to the riders at times

Don't know but compared to a lot of them with a full on bike packing set up, Kristoff is carrying jack all, looks like he is just out for a long weekend ride

So mike has mentioned in several videos now that he can't get any sleep despite trying and has wasted time trying to rest without success.surely that has to catch up before the end?

Will Hammond be able to capitalise on any errors to come and get into contention?

His tracker showed him scratched and doing 40km/hr+ at one point so guessing someone picked him up, think he scratched just after Ceduna

Videos today of the front runners showed them with brutal head winds yesterday, mean while cyclingmaven was just crossing the 90mile straight and had heavy rain

from the facebook page

We have been notified by Donncha Cuttriss that he has retired from the race due to safety concerns arising from fatigue. He is ok. He wishes to thank everyone for their support and he'll be at Trans Am June 3. #IPWR

I think its a little more balance than that as the previous stop Mike took six hours and Kristoff only 2ish but looks like Kristoff has managed much more evenly spread stops and overall had a little more rest looking at the graph

Wake up and two more scratches Donncha Cutriss who had pulled into third over night and the italian lady Juju who had an allergic reaction

Got Frank and Mike Sheldrake with in 50km of each other for second fastest Brit after Mike
