Congratulations to Tom Rowntree on finishing the Tour Divide Race in 8th place after 18 days, 15 hours and 51 minutes in the saddle. A total of 2,704 miles and 49,608 metres of climbing.

Tom was riding his rigid Shand 29er, the same bike he used to win the Highland Trail 550 in 2015, although not this time in singlespeed setup. You can read more about his race experience on his blog: newretrotom.blogspot.co.uk/
