He was 30 or 40 minutes up on schedule at one point, but the cold and wet has slashed his advantage.

I’ve just done nc 500 in motorhome the weather up there has been pretty grim

kudos if he does it 🙂

He’s having serious neck problems (holding his head up on his elbows) and the support crew have been driving up the A9 trying to source a neck brace!

They managed to get that neck brace and he’s now heading for Dornoch, although his neck and shoulders are no longer working…

Not far to go, and at least at this time of night the roads will be quiet.`

i might stay up dot watching for a wee while. 🙂

What time does he need to finish by to break the record?

By my reckoning he needs to finish before 4:04:19am (current record is 44:04:19 and he started at 8am yesterday).

It’s a big ask considering the last 24 hours but if he can keep up his recent average over the last 60 miles he’s still on target to beat it.

Yes, that’s what i had calculated too.

so he’s currently got just over 4hrs to do about 52 miles or so.

depends if his neck can hold up I suppose.

50 mles to go and Berridale coming up…

A good effort will keep him on target if Berridale doesn’t suck the go out of him.

Winds are light and behind him, so that’s good.

fingers crossed

Yep, good luck to him for that last stretch. I’m about to go to bed for the second time since he started this ride.

Just 3 miles to go at 3:16!

I cant imagine how he must be feeling.

He finished at 0326! Brilliant!

New record is 43 hours 25 minutes and 13 seconds

Respect !!!

Awesome ride!!

Yeah, that’s gonna be there for a while

Brilliant!
