Rob Mortimer Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 I saw a tweet from Apidura showing Kristoff's bike being serviced at a bike shop ...... might be shrewd, tactical move on his part?
the nerd Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 Yeah they all had an opportunity to service in Adelaide
Slowbee Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 Yeah they all had an opportunity to service in Adelaide they can get help from anyone, but it must not be pre-planned and they must return to the route.
carbon29er Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 Kristof in the lead again. We might have a sprint to the Opera House.
carbon29er Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Kristof broken clear. If he gets into Sydney before 9am, he has to ride 300km at 29.3km to do that, he would have completed 420km a day for 13 days. Forget the Epic. This is Epic.
KB280DT Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 What's happening with Mike Hall? Seems he dropped off quite a bit and it also looks as if Sarah Hammond is getting closer to him (albeit still a distance off)
GaryvdM Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 What's happening with Mike Hall? Seems he dropped off quite a bit and it also looks as if Sarah Hammond is getting closer to him (albeit still a distance off) He is still moving, and he actually has increased his distance from Sarah since Tuesday. Just looks smaller looking at the map because of the distance Kristof has put in.

The distances they do are just mind boggling

The distances they do are just mind bogglingYes, I cant get my head around it - currently the top 10 is spread over ~1000km - the distance of the Munga

GaryvdM Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Kristof got hit by a Wombat. https://www.facebook.com/IndianPacificWheelRace/photos/a.338894259819298.1073741829.262819187426806/410037586038298/?type=3&theater (I had to google what a Wombat is...)
Slowbee Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Yes, I cant get my head around it - currently the top 10 is spread over ~1000km - the distance of the Munga flippen scary stuff when you consider this is totally unsupported !

SlowManiac Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Wow been awesome following this. If I look out the window across the harbour this afternoon I might be able to spot the winner! Been a pretty big buzz here about the race I must say. Just about all positive with just a few safety issues. Riding across the Nullabour is seriously hectic. It's narrow and someone has already been knocked off his bike by the wind from a road train. Eoin Morgan also had a car incident. Not many tears being shed for Durian Rider here either...Juliana - what an amazing story - on her second ride across the Nullabour she got repeated punctures and ran out of tubes. So she stuffed a towel into her tyres and kept riding! Respect!
