Has anyone heard from Jeff T? He's on AZ87 riding towards Payson from Pine. Hope everything is ok for him.

Alice reaches the rim! Her time to Utah will be about 9 days and 9 hours assuming 7 more hours for the remaining miles. That is over 5 days faster than the female 750 record. Nicely done.

Stopped by Buffalo Park to cheer Tim. VandenDaele through Flagstaff. He was in good spirits after refueling in town.

Hey Rich I really enjoyed Your MTB cast from Superior. Dude you need to beat the all time slowest non sanctioned bike race ,tour, mundfu*k bikepacking function in Arizona record. I know you can do it. After that you can try to beat the all time slowest ,furthest traveled creepy old guy singlespeed record on a bicycle for the 750 which I profess to hold! Keep on pressing on I know you will do it.  |

Wow, another epic in the books, and yes, I do mean epic. Way to show how it is done Jay p, and don't forget Kurt refsnider who set the unbreakable record on his first shot. Congratulations to Dylan, an Josiah also. It was great meeting Alice drobna who might have been having more fun than anyone. And at 60 years of chronological age, Robert Orr's finish should hold up as an age group record for a long time. Everyone who is still out there, we are all living vicariously through you now, so keep up the good show. I love how tough this race is, and I love all the people who take on the challenge!

He detoured to Clint's Well, resting up and going to gorge on a huge breakfast in the morning. He took the smart detour over there too!! He mentioned he was going to sleep in a bit tomorrow. Go, Rich, GO!! |

just a couple thoughts on the 750...
highline: not that bag
detour section between payson and pine: terrible.
I want to give a shout out to Jeremy at 87 cyclery in payson who got me set up with a new tire even though his store was closed.
Also, to the couple who lives at the 750 trail log on the detour between payson and pine... I was freezing cold and tired and was desparately looking for a safe place to sleep in an area that seemed so uninviting (private property signs everywhere) when all the sudden I see a cooler with those magic words on them "trail magic". This cooler was all it took to make me feel welcomed and at home enough to lay down in front of their driveway and go to sleep. I was awoken the next morning by those trail angels offering me some coffee and letting me use their restroom (it's the little things in life that you are eternally grateful for out on the trail!). While I was packing my stuff that morning, he was headed down to check the trail log and was disappointed to find that none of the racers ahead of me had signed in.... so I want to encourage everyone next year to sign in at this trail log (he had a trail log set up just for the 750)
that night/morning was probably my lowest point along the trail and just having complete strangers take interest and care about me gave me the motivation to lift my spirits and get me moving down the trail with a positive attitude.

Mark Caminiti is dropping down to the finish line with a time of about 11 days and 3 hours. That is 10 hours faster than his previous best. He has pounded out this race five times!

Way to go Mark!!! Congrats on yet another AZTR750 finish, fastest yet!!
Katherine just topped out off the N. Kaibab trail, super effort!!
If Scott can tear himself away from the bakery counter at Jacob Lake Inn, he'll finish before dark. C'mon Scott, Stateline is calling.

Hi everyone. I'm late to the party here! I completely forgot about checking the forum for the tracking thread.
I think someone was asking about Colette earlier in the thread. Last I saw her was when I was calling it quits in Sonoita at the steakhouse sometime around 8:30pm. I never found her on the tracker so I'm not sure what happened to her. Anyone know? For a few days, I thought maybe she was a ghost considering my mental state. LOL
