Josh rolled up to the iconic John o' Groats sign at around 2am on Sunday 9th August to win the second edition of GBDURO, and the first self-sufficient version of the race.

After a signature measured and consistent ride, conserving sleep and stalking race leader Angus over the first few days, Josh's consistency paid off, allowing him to take the lead when Angus scratched. Once he was in no.1 spot and with the end in sight, Josh let off the shackles for the final leg, not sleeping since Thursday night for a monster 500km dash to the finish line.

In true GBDURO style, the heroic winner who has flayed himself at the mercy of the elements for over a week in a superhuman display of endurance, arrived at the finish line in the dark, on his own, with no crowd, fanfare or medal.

Stay tuned for more post-win analysis once Josh has had a sleep.
