[Event] The Munga MTB 2017

Looks like MM is kruiping up that climb. but with 100kms to go of which at least +-50km appears to be downhill, I'm calling 7pm. Thats if he doesnt decide to take a nap at the last RV5

Now we are getting to the part where the tracking signal starts getting crap..just like last year ..

MM will be sleeping in a comfy bed tonight for sure!!

I'm more incline to 21H00 finishing, about 100km's to go and at this stage I doubt that he can avg 25km/h for another 4 hours and I think he will rest a bit at RV5 before going out again.

What is the orange JOC following MM?  I know all the other oranges, but I can't work out what JOC is.

Look at Dion Guys sleep pattern, I can't help but wonder where he'd be now if he didn't take that big 4hr sleep (big being relative of course)?

true maybe i'm just being wishful here, but looking at the profile there is a significant amount downhill. And if he gets a whiff of blood he will surely hunt it down to the finish line & try & do it in daylight.

Our leader now has less than 100km to go..

It seems as if he has been climbing for hours..that's a monster to have to deal with .

All going well, at the current rate, I am guessing MM to be in at around 21h00.....

The last climb at 1050kms is only 300m or so .... don't think he will even notice it !!

 

He is home and dry barring a mechanical or crash....

Feel sorry for Jean Biermans, tough decision but the right one. Still a MASSIVE achievement just finishing the race nevertheless.

 

MM is on fire, he is a machine. Nice bike that he rides. Also, he only carries one bottle and a Camelback.
