    Great job, Philip. It amazes me how you guys can navigate AND race. I would probably never be heard from again after leaving the start on Day 1. “Yes, some racing bikes and cars went through this village,” the owner of the grocery story would inform me. “But that was four months ago.”
    Having said that I am considering being on some part of the route next year to see the competitors (and the beautiful scenery).

    Fantastic stuff Philip, keep it up. Big mention for your support team too. Anything you need brian is your man! he’d sell snow to the eskimos

    Well done Philip and Team.
    It’s absolutely amazing what you have achieved so far after seeing so many having to retire. Saturday can’t come soon enough for rest day. Brian has said that it’s the best experience of his life to be there on the team, nothing will ever top it, can only image what its like to be actually doing the Dakar.
    Well done Philip and keep her lit.
    Was wondering who is giving you your massages – Brian or Barry ?????
