I'm thinking this last 100 miles is the equivalent of a final km attack on the road...

She has 19 miles on him now with only 55 to ride.

Has he stopped now or just not updated?

(new at this dot watching so took me a while to realise that they update every hour...)

If you click the refresh ecery 3 minutes box they update more often that that! Does depend on if the spot gets it tracking message out too, often these are every 10 minutes.

If you hover over the racers icon it will tell you when that position was recorded.

Yup, both have updated now. Looks like Stefan is struggling to keep going steady now. Whatever the endurance equivalent of finish line fever perhaps

Can't believe it will finish today!

And we have a winner

Wow. Huge respect for Lael. That lovely gypsy by trade blog inspired me to go from touring to bikepacking. Great to see her nail it.

What a ride, second fastest time ever.

Lael rules : ) was thinking it was only time before a woman proved that the longer the race the more even it gets between the sexes. Great thing for cycling in general I think.

Indeed. There's also Lee Craigie's 3rd place in the HT550 and in fell running Jasmin Paris has done the fourth fastest winter Bob Graham Round, the fifth fastest ever summer Bob Graham Round and the fastest ever Ramsay Round (if you aren't in to fell running: both the BGR & RR are 24hr challenges rather than a race)

And Nicky Spinks' double BGR record...
