It’s been a bit like sitting in the cockpit waiting for take-off clearance during the air traffic control disruptions:  Looking at the dials and nothing is moving!

After another long slog over a shorter 28 mile distance (and Pat had said it would be slow) she sort of appeared to get to Pelly Farm but the Live Tracking seems to have stopped short and then all the stats get out of kilter.

The nothing doing for over 16 hours,  assumed to be at Pelly Farm, but I’ve seen no other passing comments  from anyone else about her progress.  …..  Just heard she’s fine but has bike/tyre problems again.  Cue “The Worlds Cold and Toughest Race!”

So, with apologies to Nat King-Cole:

Smile though your feet are aching
Smile though your bike is breaking
When there is snow in the sky, you’ll get by
If you smile through your tears and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through for you

In Dawson City
