That looks promising! Anyone know if there’s live tracking?

Thanks!

[Paulatic]

They are doing well and for a short while I thought really really well
Note though they started 1 hour earlier than the schedule linked up thread.

Did they do it ?

[Paulatic]

Just passed Aviemore ahead of schedule I believe.

[Norman H]

They’ve just crossed the Forth Bridge.

Is there a published schedule?

Thanks for that, I don’t know how I didn’t spot that earlier.

[Chris Jeggo]

The tracker dot has just stopped at JOG.

[Norman H]

Congratulations to all concerned. The main aim would have been the end-to-end record and I guess they’d had enough by the time they reached JOG.

The attempt was in aid of Kidney Care UK. If anyone’s interested in making a donation here’s the link.

well done those ladies/gurrrls/women/riders!
(I have briefly met Ede at a few long audaxes.)

Interesting that they chose a 4h sleep - if I've read it right! - on the first night. The trend in "fast rides" seems to be push push push, sleep is for wimps. I'd want a sleep on a 60h ride (i.e. where you have to be out for 2 nights), and I suspect they know how much they need and planned accordingly. Sensible!

Sarah Ruggins is gearing up for a tilt at the LEJOGLE record in May (around the 11th if my calculations are correct - I ran out of fingers & toes! )
