The final report into the unfortunate death of Mike Hall during the IPWR has been released.

I make no comment other than to suggest using a good tail light and have some decent reflectivity on you clothing when bikepacking racing.
It sure makes me think about my TD race where I wore all black.

I often cringe when I see bikers and hikers in all black clothes, I make a point of buying bright and clashing colours to stand out on the bike & walking in the mountains.
I spoke a mountain rescue guy recently about this subject and he said they have had several issues finding people when they are wearing black ninja suites.
To hell with fashion, I want to be seen and stay alive.
Still sad about the loss of Mike :-(
