Woohoo!  Tracker maps are borked but trackleaders is showing points logged starting 06:52.

GO STEVE!  Carefully.  Very carefully.

Edit: After a short lie down the trackers are back.  Confirmed: We have movement.
2023 targets: Survive. Maybe.

The tracker isn't keen on the bowl it keeps drawing straight lines therefore under reading, anyhow I reckon Steve averaged 10 or 11 mph in the first hour which isn't bad with one leg and a bike he is still getting used to.

My few days of doing more miles than Steve will be over.  However, while he is Bowling, I guess the tracker will not be the most exciting.  Nevertheless, has got back in the saddle quicker than most jockeys do, so my respect and admiration is undimmed.

Excellent to see Steve and the tracker back in action.

Frustratingly close to Marsh Gibbon, yet no prospect of a visit yet awhile.
