Cheers fella. Currently getting used to the heat in Albuquerque...heading to Calgary tomorrow and riding over to Banff to bivvy for the night and start on Friday. Looking like a nice dry run up north :)

Gabe's SPOT has finally made the jump from the UK to Canada.

He's at the edge of Lake Minnewanka it seems.

I never was great with time zones : ) Will be watching this from Taiwan next week, that'll really mess me up.

56mins now according to Trackleaders and half the spots aren't recording at the start. Last minute eating?

hah, probably just being smart and rolling there without the faff of people second guessing themselves. I really, really dislike that aspect of group starts in anything.

The 'refreshed -- mins ago' tag showed Alex not updating for 30-odd mins, now he's at the front. Jay Petervary's up there too, just a 'J' on his dot. Like a boss.
