Division 1Division 2Division 3Division 4

A new day is dawning and we now have 4 divs in action!

Div 1:

Griffin continues their strong lead, having crossed Kings Hwy and are about to enter the off-track section (or take a long detour). BnG aren’t too far behind, heading down Pig Rd to the checkpoint while Lodge, Bruce, Johns & Burg are approaching from the other direction. Wamba & Ursies trail behind but are chugging along on Wallaby & Lyons Rd near Div 3 drop.

Elsewhere, Fenner continues along the River Rd and will soon turn off towards Hwy Crossing 3 but they seem to have missed the turnoff and need to be wary of that exclusion zone!

Wright are nearing their own highway crossing at Nelligen, having made it onto Old Nelligen Rd, skirting that exclusion zone.

Div 2:

Well we almost had our first DNF of the night but BnG have turned things around for the better! Whilst initially they seemed to enjoy the flatness of the Clyde river, they may have overshot their turnoff, but are now Wright behind Wright 2.

The BOETS on the other hand have decided they're a bit tired of being a follower, and have diverged from Wright 2, opting for highway crossing 2 instead of 3 (which they were originally on track for).

Behind them Bruce & Fenner are continuing along the River Rd, Fenner seems to be running with it’s Div 1 team but may also fall for the same trap as them! 

Elsewhere in Div 2, Ursies lead Old Fenner, Johns, Burg & Griffin down Clyde River Rd towards Hwy Crossing 1.

Div 3:

Yukeembruk has taken the lead, taking Wallaby Rd from dropsite (up north), despite popular consensus, but they have clearly demonstrated it’s superiority to Lyons Rd (South). All the other teams are in “The Cluster ™”. None have seemed to opted for the short bushbash near Currowan Camp, keeping it safe!

Div 4:

Division 4 has finally dropped! Whilst it’s early for now, there has been a very even split of teams taking the south and north routes respectively. The south route is noticeably shorter, but much hillier, whereas north teams will have a flatter longer experience. Both routes are competitive, let's see which pays off!
