Story
<p>2 blokes, 1 charity, a dune buggy and a 10,000 mile journey... sounds easy doesn't it? well not without your help its not!</p>
<p>We have more than a months worth of wind, rain, dust, exhaustion, cold, getting lost, run in's with various local police forces and the occasional (hopefully!) breakdown to deal with. Plus some fun times thrown in for good measure during this completely unsupported adventure.</p>
<p>Your support of giving whatever you can will mean a huge difference to the people of mongolia that go help are working with.</p>
<p> <span style="color: #626768; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">The Mongolia Charity Rally is an epic 10,000 mile pan-continental roadtrip for the charity GO HELP across numerous mountain ranges, deserts and more barren and inhospitable lands. The journey starts in London with its final destination in the ancient Mongol capital of Ulaanbaatar.</span></p>
