Meanwhile, Tour Divide leader Matthew Lee is already in Wyoming as the chase group guns for Idaho through heavy mud. The mud has shut down Joe Meiser, 2009 Trans-Iowa winner and an early favorite, and hes cooling his heels in Corum 196-151-47-0F03FB30R WoMen's watch Lima, Montana while he waits for the Fed Ex man to bring him a new drivetrain. Jay and Tracey T-Race Petervary report that the tandem sinks a lot deeper in mud than does a single. But thats another beauty of this eventthe weather could break, the sun could come out, and the middle of the field could be very fast atop a section that beat the GU out of the leaders. Or the opposite can happenI recall Jay Petervary running ahead of weather in the 2007 GDR. Mac McCoy e-mailed me yesterday to tell me about the pestilent rainfall along the Tetons and that the Ashton-Flagg Ranch road may even be impassable.
I did not know the watch was called a Sportscape Alarm Automatic until I saw it posted as such on the sale forums of TZ. You learn a lot in those forums.Its a nice 40mm size, mounted on a Bob Faux Crocodile strap. Works well with the watch. It Corum 039-250-20-0F01FM30R WoMen's watch came with the original Dunhill strap but was VERY worn out and I was unable to find a thin enough strap to use with the Dunhill folding deployant. I stuck the 20mm Bob strap on and it looked good enough for me! I noticed that the watch has subsequently been mounted on a genuine Croco strap by another owner.
Mac wrote the definitive book on ridingand racingthe Divide. He mapped the course in the 90s and Cycling The Great Divide is the On The Road for the off-the-road set. Dont listen when someone tells you, Oh, Tour Divide (or the GDR) isnt a mountain bike race, its on roads. Theres a reason that cyclocross bikes dont make it to Antelope Corum 039-250-20-0F18EB30R WoMen's watch Wells except on the rack atop the Touareg. Cross bikes are for dudes. Single speeder Chris Plesko is holding a blistering (total average) pace of nearly six miles an hour! I noted yesterday just how light hes loaded. The fast folk are not packing tents, rather wispy water-repellent sleeping bag covers that Matthew Lee claims dont even last one season.
