Pretty sure he is in the chase group. Just one of the riders that folded their number plates affecting the reading of the timing chip
From Unbound twitter:
200-Mile Menās Update: Mile 147 - new lead group of 5 includes Ian Boswell, Alexey Vermeulen, Pete Stetina and Keegan Swenson and Ivan Silk. ten Dam has fallen off the lead & is 1-min off the leaders. Another group including Russell Finsterwald & Rob Britton 30 sec behind them.
Wonder if LtD had a mechanical. Thatās a surprising turn of events. Unless he cracked himself trying to make a gap on his own
Fingers crossed for Alexeyš¤ #MichiganPeloton
Whoās the dude in the Spesh Off-Road Team (looking) jersey in the lead group? Is that not Finsty?
Rooting for Keegan to win big time. Heās definitely got his work cut out for him with the quality of the riders left in the hunt.
Yeah, sadly the live tracking (on athlinks) has been pretty bad, also was showing riders who arenāt even their in the front group etc.
Also heard Flo is lacking hard, so Iām relying on Instagram (although I thought Mid South and Rule of 3 did a much better job at ālive streamingā through their stories).
Also rooting for Keegan, but I would be happy for most people in the lead group to get it - Payson also seemed to be in the lead/chase group still, happy to see him backā¦
Yes, I think thatās Finsty - there was someone else in a similar jersey that I couldnāt identify.
I agree, Iām really disappointed with the IG feed. Rule of Three was so much better.
Is Alex Wild showing up on the athlinks feed? Havenāt seen him at all since the very early updates. Hope heās going ok
.
Hope all our TR compadres are going well too. Looks pretty wet out there now. Have they passed the trickiest parts for mud/terrain?
No, you canāt even find him when searching for him.
Looks like a group of killers. But Who is Ivan Silk? I canāt even find him on Google.
Dutch Mafia???
Yeah, I think Payson + Ryan mentioned him as part of the dutch mafia ![]()
They have meant Ivar Slik probably.
Ivan, Keegan, and Ian at 164mile
Front menās 200-mile group is through Mile 164. Ivar, Keegan and Ian are in the front with Alexey chasing just seconds behind. Pete has dropped about 45 seconds behind that.
Guess the chips are still messed up. Keegan isnāt on the live leaderboard.
Iām stopped getting updated texts on the guys for some reason, but these two came in a few minutes ago:
Sophiaās gap is up to over 5 1/2 minutes.

Anyone watching Flo (if itās even got a live follow cam of some sort)? Were Keegan, Ian, and Ivan beginning to loaf? Or Alexey just threw down to make the catch?
Was really too hard to tell ⦠they all look the same: caked with mud
