The bulk of the race made it to Ohio. The racers, officials, and teams (media included) can smell the barn now that we are in the triple digits in mileage to go. Team JDRF pressed on toward TS42 into the failing light towards 9:00 p.m. EST. Team car headlights continue to provide illumination for them, but the numerous twists and turns make it pretty sporty out here. The road condition is also pretty rough, slowing the riders furrther as they excercise caution over speed.
The contrast in spirits and speed continue to be apparent between the individual racers and the teams.
The smiles and conversation come a little easier from the team riders the soloists now. Not surprising, but a finish line awaits all in Annapolis.
