Supplierpipeline 4th at PQ

SMcK / 01.07.2006

They may not feel up to it, but Supplierpipleline has crossed the finish line just in time to celebrate Canada Day with a few cold beers. Captain Bob Miller, Greg McHale, Denise McHale and Scott Ford crossed the finish line at 12:32pm local time, just two minutes (2! Minutes!) behind Merrell Wigwam Adventure, the American-Kiwi juggernaut captained by Robyn Benincasa that led the race for several days. So the flags at the finish so far: Stars and Stripes ... Stars and Stripes ...Stars and Stripes ... Maple Leaf.

Slow and steady ... it didn\'t win them the race, but it did move the Canucks slowly up the leaderboard.

Congratulations, Happy Canada Day - now it\'s time to recover and prepare for the ARWC in Sweden and Norway!

Spirit, meanwhile, has leapt up the leader board, and currently sits in 25th place, while Mind Over Mountain is in 30th.
