Aye, tracking website says ‘stationary’ which I assume is a mistake.

Theoretically if it’s a SPOT tracker it shouldn’t depend on the mobile network?

Edit: Twitter says she’s coming up to Exeter. Not sure where that is in relation to schedule but apparently going well.

I’m told
The tracker relies on phone signal as well as gps so sometimes drops out

a very quick calc suggests 115 mile in the first 6 hours (20 mph) have no idea if that is on target or not but about twice as fast as I go.

looks like it has updated 16 times in the last 6 hours, so once every quater of an hour. still interesting

The Twitter feed reports that the primary tracker is having technical issues.
