In June, Simon Kennett will have a crack at the 4000km Great Divide mountain bike race from Canada to Mexico.

The Great Divide Race is a self-supported, solo competition following the Great Divide mountain bike route. Traversing the USA, the route demands over 60,000 metres of climbing along its length. Competitors carry all equipment necessary to negotiate the backcountry, restocking with food from towns along the route. Last year a record 25 riders started and 11 reached the finish line. You can find out about the race at:

www.greatdividerace.com

You can follow Simon's progress as he prepares for what might be hardest mountain bike race on earth, at http://greatdividekiwi.blogspot.com

Progress reports from the race will be posted in this thread and Simon's blog is getting added to the Kiwi Racelog - Good Luck Simon!
