    Lyndon rings in on the way to bed down for the night after a shortened day three. The second special of the day (SS6) was cancelled due to wildfires in the area. Big day on tap tomorrow, with just one special but over 180km of racing from the 300+ km day. It took him over 3hrs to do the roadbook for the stage! He's been having problems with his right hand due to bike vibration, hopefully the team can sort a solution overnight. Sleep well, Lyndon. We'll look forward to hearing from you tomorrow!

While for many this year "Marathon Stage" is just a fancy way of saying "Motorcycle-only campout", for Toby it's been a true "Marathon Rally", in every sense of the phrase. Made famous to the general audience by his overnight in the dunes prior to the rest day, Toby's managed more midnight km's than any other moto in the race.  And yet in every photo, there's that indomitable smile, shining through.  Thanks for talking with us, Toby, and keep those wheels rolling for another two days!

    Ned calls in from the windy (gave the sat phone a few fits, apologies) bivouac in Peru following Stage 12, the conclusion of the "marathon" stage -- which Ned found to be a bit of a farce since the factory teams basically got a full service along the liaison route after the special. A few mechanical gremlins overnight for Ned, his training paid off through the dunes and he made it in to camp where they'll overhaul the clutch on the bike tonight. Last big stage tomorrow, keep your fingers crossed for a clean run. Goooooo! Ned!!
