i asked that earlier. apparently his and Andy Reids spot trackers are muddling each other's signals and therefore jumping all over the place...

You'd think Andy would be giving odd readings too then - odd. :eh:

Maybe that's where they stayed the night and then they'll cut back onto the intended route?
That's virtually the same spot where Oli and Andy bedded down.

Poor bugger. Love the attitude though "...has been fun in a strange sort of way/experience...back next year with lessons learned..."

Sad to hear. Good on him though for giving it a crack.

Tricky to miss Springfield. Unless you are into underwater riding through the Waimak.

I would say Andy and Oli are together still. I can't see why they would split unless something bad has happened. There is just too much collective gain to be had by sticking together for the rest of it.

looks like you are meant to go to Springfeild, but then head out on Pocock Rd not SH 73, as it appaers some have done. Will be interesting to see what Simons Tracker shows ?

I've got Oli updated 0 mins ago and Andy 40 mins ago. So most likely they're still together, just updating out of sync.

See what you mean about Springfield Scatter.

Looks like Thomas has given up trying to get to the Molesworth before the 7 pm curfew; resting up for an hour in Springfield, think he's pretty knackered.

Simon and Sifter have gone around Springfield, as per the intended route.

Maybe it wasn't a shortcut before, maybe riders indeed see an ice cream shop and a big tree to rest under.
