Story

So what does a Travel Agent, a Chiropractor and a Paramedic have in common?

They all have the insane urge to partake in a rally in India that will take us thousands of kilometres from the hot and humid Kochi in the south to the chilly snow capped hills of Gangtok in the north.

Starting in March 2010, we and dozens of other randoms will attempt to drive through the Dark Heart of India. Our death trap of choice.....the mechanical beast known as the Rickshaw, an enormous 7 horse power of brawn that will carry us the length of the sub-continent. On average that amounts to 6hrs of driving per day for 14 days.

It isn't the most sane choice for annual leave but we all hope to make a difference through the charities we support.

Any amount you are able to part with would be greatly appreciated. Just Giving offer a unique and effective was to facilitate direct fund injections into front line charities.

Please feel free to follow our journey through here.

 

Regards,

Andy, Marty and Eugene
