[RC] Gate 5 - UAE still strong, France leading Europe teams - Steph Teeter

Top 5 riders arrived (UAE) - tons of energy. Sh Rashid (#2) 's horse Kevin de Narthou was pulled - telltale head bob - slight but there. Nice show of sportsmanship tho - a smile, 'yes, no problem, thank you' , and a handshake with the vets. Sh Ahmed is still on the trail, the 3rd team member now.

There's quite a bit of excitement for UAE - I'm feeling it too. It's not over yet, but they're doing everything right, and well, and with a high degree of professionalism and sportsmanship.

Jaume and

Merri's taking a few more photos, we'll catch the front runners as they leave and then head back to the main camp for the finish.

A little cooler, slight breeze, less humid -

I just talked to Darolyn - she's still hanging in there. Cheryl's doing great, as is Jan. :)

I have a printout of team standings as of VG 4, but don't understand why USA isn't listed, all 3 riders passed VG4, I'll try to find out-

1. UAE 16:31
2. France 17:39
3. Bahrain 17:50
4. Belgium 17:58
5. Germany 18:06
6. Spain 18:08
7. Portugal 18:30
8. Suisse 19:15
9. GBR 19:17
10. Italie 19:21
11. Qatar 19:21
