Looks as though he made it. Pheew! What and exciting and enthralling time spent on a computer. If only it could always be so good. Need to update data right now!

You have always been on the ball mrcg, many thanks for all the corrected/actual updates.

Respect Karina. RDK, well you have to respect the bloke for so near yet so far. Toughest thing to accept I guess. But we all know he did it!

Got to hand it to Karina. She must be pulling on all her woman strength. I don't think we know what inner strength women have. Go Karina!

FINISHED!!! GELUK OU VETTES!!!!!

He is flying! 29km/hr. Vettes wants to knock this bugger off.

Mayb Maybe taking it all in before the final shot at the finish. So very happy for him.

Thank goodness. He was on a mission. Bad luck when you are tired.

Hey Vettes, wat maak julle in die bos tokolosh? Bossie or some shade?

GVM is way off track and clocking in the miles. Poor soul. Nobody to call him back. All this at the end.....It would break me properly I think.

Give Vettes a big pat on the back from me please.

Vettes at the top now, 50 down hill k's to go. Taito must still do the climb. Last little bump will be a breeze so close to home? Go Vetseun and Taito. Home by beer time I think. All of you have done so well.

Thanks for the live feedback T. Keep it up, there is no rush. Clever move that.

Anybody know what happened to Vetseun? According to the tracker, he left Sutherland town and turned back to the guest house and has been there for 4hrs plus. Decided to have a kip? Hope it is not anything too serious? Strange that someone would turn back.

Unbelievable. Lots and lots of guts with no prisoners taken.

Nope, he is back to third. Freek and SM have a battle royal going on for forth.

How DG pulled that move is also unbelievable! There must be something up with KB as SM has also passed him. Freek is hot on his heels. Maybe too much Australia me thinks? Pity, he was matching DG pedal for pedal but 20ks! Remarkable ride indeed. Go Vetseun, go!

Lucky you.

And Sthembiso. He is making up ground fast. Could be a sprint finish.....

Respect!!!

2nd place is going to be interesting. The poor guys must be giving all they got to get away from each other. And all this after 900kms. Must be mentally and physically tough going to be close racing each other at this stage.

Maybe KB burnt too many matches in Aus? MM for the win DG in second KB in third JD for a credible finish and may go up a place or two? Vettes - incredible ride GJ - inspirational ride and not forgetting all the participants for entering and at least giving it a go. Humbled by these riders.

Huge respect!!!!! Wow!!!! My injury is a mere flesh wound. Unbelievable. What a performance indeed.

Go Vetseun go!
