So we have finshed 2 days of riding under harsh sun and rough tracks.
All we can really say is the pictures tell the tale! Kav has been booking double massages and both been in the medicaltent for bum treatments!
We are currently sitting in the top middle half of the field but doubt a poduim finish is an option at this stage Kav is working at 90-100% max rate just to finish so we are happy where we are at this stage.
Heaps form people dropping out every day 68 on day 1, am sure many more to follow (just hope it is not us)
Only one tech problem thus far - me blowing side wall of tyre! So was almost race over but made a plan and finshed in 6:55mins
So many people in medical tents on drips and treat some hard core grazes/holes/damged bodies.
The next 6 days will be challanged for everyone, as for me can say I am enjoying the pain /terrain/ tracks/ riding and the most of all the overall sportmanship amongst the riders.
ps: Sa has some awesome scenery.
