yes but have lost the link . Watch this space. I believe that a driver is needed. Full costs covered. Let me know if you are flexible and want to play.

No idea about twitter myself.
She has been doing some big milages. Southern Argentina to the top of South America somewhere solo this spring then from Florida to Vancouver. All taken as it come with just a small bag. A week or two back she rode back from mid Spain for the hell of it.

Garmin gives you a route but no elapsed distance/time (unless I’ve missed it somewhere?)

Here's the RRA's link to the schedule on a PDF which seems a tad easier to read.

http://www.rra.org.uk/pdf%20files/Attempt2180.pdf

There seem to be far fewer waypoints than was once the case. It doesn't make much difference because the tracker seems so imprecise, any reference to the schedule to estimate progress against the record seems iffy.

Good luck to Michelle Lee.
