Jure' Robic's goal this year was not only to reclaim his title but to do it in record breaking fashion. In fact I was considering to open TS 39 earlier than Tuesday afternoon. Well, Jure's stomach would not cooperate on Friday or Saturday as he was climbing in Colorado. Everyone deals with stomach issues at least once during a solo RAAM, and this one has evened out the field. His average speed is now lower than the record of 15.4 mph, but with some tailwinds and his stomach calming down, he could still be on the hunt. Gulewicz is only 3 hours back at TS 23 patiently waiting to make his move. There's a battle for 3rd with Pattison, Morlock, and Warner-Smith at TS 20. At TS19 it's a traffic jam with 9 riders within 9 hours of each other!
