Highland Trail

Good luck to any, and or all, riders on the @TourDivide tomorrow. Going to be a weird one. Back to the old GMBDR days, with some extra missing sections. Ride fast. Sleep little. Eat lots. Don't be a dick. Pretty much covers it.

Remember - you can ITT the route at any time. Details of what you need to do are on the website. Well done to all riders this year - whether you finished first, last, or scratched.

@singlespeedsean @HT_550 @MartinMBrown @TrepidExplorer Well done, we were passing through on the way South saw Martin finish and saw @cyclingtiger , Andrea's husband . Martin hadn't seen her for quite a while.

We have a bouncing @MartinMBrown - well done! Any ide if @TrepidExplorer is with him anyone?

@MartinMBrown @HT_550 Congrats on an inspiring achievement, enjoying watching your dot a few miles from the end. All the best from the bikepackers you met on the way to a macaroni pie breakfast in Fort Augustus

@HT_550 it’s been a scorching day - i’m frazzled.

Two riders still on course, should hopefully finish today. The HTR550 is not over until the last rider finishes folks.

@jennygrahamis Yes, you did do a bit of an epic didn't you.

@HT_550 Yeeeehaaar 👏 Takes Soooooo much resilience to be other there on day 8 - talking from experience 😁👊

Last two riders on the final leg home.

@HT_550 They deserve as much, if not more, kudos as the winner! #hardcore

@TrepidExplorer Not acceptable. Keep riding.

Nearly quit yesterday but the view from the tent door today made me question why I'd miss out on another day of this. Battery low and charger broke so signing off till the finish line. #goTrep

No overnight scratches. Three riders still on the course.

@HT_550 @TrepidExplorer @dotwatcher absolute respect to all the riders completing the course. Being fast is one thing but having mental resilience for 7+ days is a skill that is awesome.

This leaves us with just three riders: - Andrea Rodgers - Martin Brown - Johnny Baker

No overnight scratches again......

Suspicious lack of scratches today.... hardy bunch this lot.
