My story
In April 2013, Ronald, Ben and Adam will be crossing India south to north (Cochin to Shillong) in a 7hp tuktuk - basically a passenger scooter.
It is further than Perth to Sydney on some of the world's worst roads, with zero backup, no set route and only going by map and GPS numerical coordinates.
We're a bunch of white-collar guys aged around 30. We're wholly unprepared. We're not the 'adventuring type'. But we're doing this for charity and we appreciate your help.
FRANK Water Projects is a UK-based charity devoted to providing clean drinking water to areas with high levels of contamination.
Any donation is massively appreciated, with all donations over $2 fully tax-deductible.

An amazing result - donations still coming in even though we've now been back home for over a week after a dangerous but successful trip. Thankyou all so much, we've raised much more than we hoped for. Our thoughts post-trip can be read at: http://bit.ly/15QgMpO
Amazing! We just hit our original goal of $1500... thanks so much to all supporters! As a result we've set a new goal of $5000. Madness? Who cares! The countdown is on - let's do this!
