At about 1/3 distance & 7 hours in, John Shaggy Ross is only minutes behind the leader, who I think is Czeck rider Jan Kopka.John seems in good spirits & did not seem to be as flat out as the leader, which may pay off later. He's keen to get to the finish as he has a plane to catch tomorrow. Ed Oxley is in a clear 3rd some 1 1/2 hours back & looking OK. He described the last section I saw him complete as tough going, with lots of pushing & having regular lie downs in the snow aka falling off. After Ed there's at least two other riders but they are a long way back. No sign of anyone else yet. Good luck fellas & I'll try to catch up with them out on the course in the morning.

Cool!
I'd occasionally wondered why they didn't appear to be iditasport style events in that part of the world.
