South African team USN have leapfrogged to take the lead on the overnight hike. John Collins, the team's navigator, is staying off the hiking trails to take the team on a direct A to B route. This is in true John Collins style and hardly surprising.
Lafuma are not far from USN (I don't know how "not far"). Both teams have overtaken Buff Coolmax.
This move, if successful, will put USN about 4-hours ahead of race schedule. They are expected to reach the end of the hiking stage, at Thomas River, between 03h00-05h00 (Sunday morning).
