The winner of the woman's event is Pippa Handley from Edinburgh. Took her twelve days to cycle to Istanbul. Much respect.
Story on road.cc has MS Handley finishing with one sock and being asked by wee Turkish boy in petrol station Why the one sock, she said a dog stole the other one. He replied Did he not need the pair?
The male winner finished in just under eight days, a day ahead of second place. Not sure if the winner slept at all?
I have it from his uncle that Fast Dave was well in contention but suffered an injury.
