Andrew Jones ITT has arrived in Ovando. Said the snow at Richmond Peak kicked him, with rain and postholeing. For those that haven't reached it yet he advised early morning is best for your health.

Steve Watson is have a tough day with navigation - currently he's on his second detour doing extra miles on day 3. He missed the turn of Flathead Valley Rd, and now has a second issue and is heading north instead of south.
Does anyone know what he is using for navigation? Would this not show on the GPS as being off-track?

Jefe Branham is approaching Seeley Lake so should be reaching Ovando, MT in a light rain later today. Will stick around for photos to post. Ditto Andrew Jones ITT if he starts pedaling again.
Thanks Angler! |

An issue with some of the audio files not playing has been resolved. I blame jet lag. :|

Photos included: ITT Andrew Jones has left Ovando along with his two new riding buds, brothers Reid and Brant Haflich of Sonoma CA who are riding the Divide "on their own terms". All have refueled. All agreed Richmond Peak just before Seeley was a killer. But all in excellent spirits and seeing incredible scenery. Oh and the weather: perfect. 60's. with partial sun and clouds and so far no rain.

Jefe Branham left Ovando MT at 1755 hours. Everything closed in town but got the market to open up as all he wanted were snacks and to get back at it. Downed a liter of coke. For a guy who has pedaled over 500 miles on only 1.5 hours of sleep he was in excellent shape and showing a great attitude. Says he wants to keep going til midnight and get as close to Helena as he can before taking a break. Gave him the status of 2nd and 3rd place riders then wished him luck and safety. Photos up in a minute.

Hey all,
I don't see the live tracking option on the Tour Divide Website (Beinveado) like years before. I want to check on a few people's progress. Can anyone dial me into where the spot tracking is for the ride? I appreciate any help.
