Details on Shawii and Lucky

March 28th, 2008 Posted in Breaking News

Some information on Shawii and I’m trying to get more, but here’s what I know.  They left CP18,  I heard, in a car avoiding the canyon and withdrawing from the race and plans to bike from CP19 to the finish.  We just, however, received a SPOT from that team in the canyon.  Apparently they weren’t clear with our CP Staff and may have entered the canyon as a twosome and the third to meet them at CP19.  I’ll let you know details, but it appears that they are making progress.

Team Lucky seemed missing in action, but we did a bit of SPOT research and it appears there OK punches at the waypoints were just outside of our catch zone.  We’ve revised the catch a little in the canyon and so now the leaderboard shows Lucky progressing through the canyon at a good pace.
