Race Across America update

Jure Robic, the leader of the men's solo division of Race Across America, has put the St. Louis area well behind him, but there are still plenty of riders who are a long way from getting to the St. Louis region.

Robic passed through Marthasville, Mo., at 7:40 p.m. CDT, he arrived at the Mississippi River at Alton, Ill., at 3:15 a.m. today, and he blew threw Greenville, Ill., at 6:27 a.m. Second-place male Mike Trevino made it into Marthasville at 7:05 a.m. today. He is expected to reach the Mississippi about 12:08 p.m. and Greenville about 3:30 p.m.

Team Beaver Creek-Vail, the leading four-man team, went through Marthasville at 4:01 a.m., crossed the Mississippi at 7:24 a.m. and passed through Greenville at 9:41 a.m.

Anna Catharina Berge, the only female solo rider, passed through Fort Scott, Kan., at 10:02 a.m. today. She is expected to make it to Marthasville at 7:21 a.m. Sunday, the Mississippi at 1:16 p.m. Sunday and Greenville at 5:13 p.m. Sunday.

When the riders reach the Mississippi, they have gone 2,012 miles, and they still have 1,037 miles left to Atlantic City, N.J.
