    Yes I agree with you .  Just to point out that the missing tulips were unmarked fixed objects like crossing a public road or a closed gate so didn't appear overnight . The guys are resilient and are using a good dose of luck also . I must also add it was TODAY's navigation I was talking about...

    Guys are still complaining about the navigation .  It was very poorly marked . One mistake and you will never make it on fuel.  Tulips missing , major landmarks like closed gates missing.  You see danger points just before you get to them, so too late. Not wanting to put a negative spin on the...

    Andrew's tracker shows him still at the start so safe in a town, but out the race. But if his luck is in his tracker is broken and he is still riding . Will see if I can find out more for you. The front guys should be at the finish in the next 30 minutes or so , so the focus will be on them...
