Update at 22h19
South African team McCain Adventure Addicts finished this afternoon at 16h15 in second place, 6h15 behind winners Team USN.
Swedish team Bjufors complete the podium. They crossed the line at 19h25.
The Australians of Blackheart/Bunker Captial are expected in next. And then the second McCain team, McCain Adventure Fanatics. Lafuma is also out there somewhere. They'll only reach the finish in the wee hours of morning.
News from the finish is that a cold front is moving in and the night is overcast. Brrrrrr...
Mean while... along the coast, heading South, a lovely race is unfolding. Epitact, Trek/Uraguay, PeptoPro, Arena and Keen Tor'quers are within spitting distance of each other; and these positions could easily shuffle with a slow transition, 10-minutes more sleep or moving slowly.
Fred is going to try to get to Haga Haga tomorrow, to get us more on the ground news. I've got a meeting in the morning - back around noon. So hopefully by then Fred will have more for us. For now, night-night.
