Update: Saturday 21st @ 7am
Looks like Reuben Kline isnt waiting at the front for someone to ride with, though Matt Lee has ridden late into the past few nights to try and catch up. The only one within spiting distance of the record is Reuben (if he maintains his pace). My prediction of less snow in Wyoming didnt ring true, somewhat suprisingly there is snow at around 7300 feet close to the ID/WY border. The two 9500 feet climbs in the 100 miles after should be interesting.
David Nice pulled out in Condon. well done on 430 miles. Keep in mind that he was on a fixed speed bike- no coasting, descending without feet on the pedals or walking. I am sure we would love to hear just how much tougher it is riding fixed.
Karl Wilcox pulled out in Helena after 591 miles with knee trouble. Seems to be the limiting factor for most racers and there is no real chance of recovery if you continue to ride. Lets hope the remaining racers can deal with the pain and learn to ride in the smaller rings.
Kevin Montgomery pulled out after 900 odd miles, I am sure he will be posting here soon enough with more details.

Attached is the racers call in times at various times. The PACE times at the bottom show the time they need to be hitting a particular location in order to achieve an 18-30 finishing day time. These times assume an average distance is maintained every day, and it ignores if a racer called-in before sleeping or in the morning. Post here for further clarification.
