We're all cheering you on! Following you on the tracker - it's getting obsessive. I haven't got anything done for days!!
Keep safe,
Love Helen and the Boys

As Helen says, watching the tracker is obsessive.....

Watch your core body temperature as the afternoon wears on (rider and crew!)

Amazing ride - I think you are proving that there is a connection between perspiration and inspiration.

Just amazing Dan! Over a week on the saddle and still going strong. Wishing you to the finish line.


P.S. Still think you are a nutter and should put a motor on that bike :)!

Way to go Daniel - Wimbledon and RAAM stats - what more can we ask for. No food, no nothing just a laptop and a tv - fantastic!

Heard you had a little siesta - good deal! From here it looks like you and the crew are doing a fine job of balancing progress and protecting you for the next few days.

Must be quite something to be rolling along beside the Mississipi as the evening deepens.

You have all the physical, mental and emotional strength you need - just stay in tune with yourself to keep the pace that is right for you.

DHL are on their way with some motivating Barry songs and some Condensed Milk so no need to worry!! You will feel the benefit when it arrives and I am sure this will keep you going all the way to the end!!!!!
