After the calm thirties soon the roaring forties


It is been slack, still and calm, but they are off again. There have been plenty of adjectives on board Groupe Bel on this 24th day of the Barcelona World Race.Now on the other side of the anticyclone barrier, Kito de Pavant and Seb Audigane will at last experience better times, with the progressive strengthening of a Westerly wind flow, a good thing for those who already saw themselves becoming...

A narrow way out for a Cow


"Beard or no beard", that is Sébastien Audigane's great question of the day (see today's video)! There is definitely a good mood on board Groupe Bel, and there is every reason for this. Second at 15:00 hours this Monday, 135 miles from the Spanish, Estrella Damm, the two friends have climbed three places this weekend, benefitting from the technical pit-stops made in Brazil by the ex-leaders...
