Köln / Cologne 48hr – 34hrs – William passes 250km & in #1 position
A quick update. At 34hrs into the 48hr race, William has taken the 1st position by a narrow lead. The first 5 positions/distances are as follows.
| Position | Name | Finish | Nation | Total 34h km |
|
| 1 | Sichel,William | FOH | GBR | 250.60 | 155.5Miles |
| 2 | Ebbert,Nobert | FOH | GER | 250.29 | |
| 3 | van de Erve,Jan | FOH | NED | 249.67 | |
| 4 | Flick,Markus | FOH | GER | 247.51 | |
| 5 | Ruppert,Ralf | FOH | GER | 239.78 |
As you can see from the distances, there is still really nothing much between the top 5 competitors, with only around 10km between the #1 and 5 positions. With 14 more hours to go, it is still very much anybody’s race.
As it is obviously never wise to talk too much about strategy while a race is on, I won’t add much other than that having taken the lead William will be aiming to make the most of this. It will be very interesting to look at the positions in a few hours time….
More soon, Shaun
