Div 1 Update - Converging at last
Sat 10:34. 3x 📷. Posted by unknown (deleted) author.
B&G and Griffin Div 1 have not seen each other since drop. With B&G taking the flatter but harder-to-navigate southern route and Griffin taking the northern with a bonus trip to Cooleman Plain. It seems they are going to converge onto the slope of doom at approximately the same time according to our Race predictor. It seems Griffin is going to rack up over 100km lets see if that hinders them on the run home (see light blue). As opposed to the navigationally challenging AAWT south option which is equally as long (dark blue), but has about 1 black mountain run up (200m) less of climbing.

So you may have noticed that the Race Predictor results change spontaneously this is as primarily we only get tracker updates every so often and when we do they have a major impact on estimated average GAP. We calculate the time teams are expected to get into endpoint by mapping their tracker data to a series of route options if they are close enough and then access the speed and terrain they traveled across to estimate an average gradient-adjusted pace which it applies to the remaining optimal route to endpoint. It does not and cannot account for nav errors or fatigue… Read more.

Morning Update DIV 1-3
Sat 04:00 . Posted by unknown author
Division 1Division 2Division 3
I tried to get some sleep, but am now back blogging. Firstly let's take a look at the updated race standings Griffin has seemingly surged to the lead in Div 1 with likely the southern route teams hindered by the AAWT, with it thinking B&G is coming in second and Ursies 3rd (although it seems Ursies is a ahead on the map). In Div 2 B&G has seemingly surged ahead. In Div 3 it thinks Burg is ahead, with Bruce struggle to make the time and and with B&G's tracker on the snowy mountain it seems they have DNFed or taken a bizarre detour or their traker has misbehaved wildly (will confirm what is happening here)… Read more.

Burgmann 1 trig point hunting?
Sat 24:15 . Posted by unknown author
Burgmann 1 seem to have been spooked by Bruce 1's return to the course, and have initiated evasive manoeuvres up a hill.Hopefully they get back on track, since they are perfectly poised to overtake the ex-most leading div 1 team… Read more.

Ursies 1 making moves
Fri 23:50 . Posted by unknown author
Ursies 1 have done a goldilocks manoeuvre: avoiding the tough nav of the south route, and the hills of the north route. They appear to be making good time against B&G div 1--with a much easier nav to AAWT intersection with Port Phillip Trail… Read more.
AAWT -- caution: navigational hazard
Fri 23:35 . Posted by unknown author
I've highlighted the AAWT here, which is mostly unmarked through this section--and will require good focus and skills for teams to get through.I'm not quite sure that the bush bash advised by the purple course route to Long Plain Rd is an awesome idea, but we'll see which way teams go… Read more.
Final Predictor Update For the Night
Fri 23:35 . Posted by unknown author
With the difficulties of the south div 1 Nav becoming apparent the gaps has closed massively in the predictor . It still clings on to hope for Bruce having them come second but one suspects they will continue to run teh wrong way for a little bit more and be unable to hold their initial pace, currently it has B&G just pipping both them and Griffin. Div 2 continues to be a tight affar between Bruce B&G and Johns (apologies for some reason Bruce 2 is not displaying). Fenner is still ahead in Div 3. Estimated times thankfully becoming more reasonable. I am off to bed and will give y'all a big update in the morning before I head off to EP… Read more.
Coole (Route) Man!
Fri 23:32 . 2x 📷 . Posted by unknown author
It Seems Griffin Div 1 are taking the marginally longer scenic route route across Cooleman Plain, featuring a less defined trail. Lets hope those old huts to be seen there distract them from the fact they made a suboptimal (but far from disattourous) route choiceFacts from Harrison: Mapping these out, looks like the route Griffin is taking has ~100m of vert vs the Purple line's 200m. (first photo is the long route, second photo os Cooleman Plain route)… Read more.
Commentators Curse?
Fri 23:20 . Posted by unknown author
With Bruce Div 1 being the early darling of the race predictor it is perhaps predictable they decide to counteract it's assumption of optimal navving it seems they are headed on a fire trail which takes them no where useful. Looks like B&G is now leading div 1… Read more.

The race Predictor Still thinks Bruce is leading Div 1, but the gap has closed to B&G, I suspect it is way too excited about their expected finish time of 8:16am especially as the trackers seem to have Bruce And B&G in Div 1 very close. It thinks Bruce and B&G @ Div 2 are very close whereas Fenner is front in Div 3 with the predictor for some reason really penalising the northern longer and harder route (but perhaps overly so). It very much does not like Bruce Div 3 going their own way up to the northern route which is longe, hillier and more more rmeote than both suggested options… Read more.

Division 1: group brain

These division 1 teams have opted for the much more complicated nav route, following the beautiful Australian Alps Walking Trail... which is not much of a trail for this section.Teams will have to watch a bearing and make sure they are following sparsely placed trail markers (maybe hard to see at night!)… Read more.
