hello,
We (Nick Franklin and Paul Crowe - AKA 'Team Kipper') have decided that our annual BMX mission this year should be replaced with something more ridiculous.
It didn't take long for us to realise the only sensible thing to do, is to drive to Mongolia - 10,000 miles across some of the worlds most hostile terrain in a car thats teetering on the brink of a failed
MOT.
Checkout: our website:
www.teamkipper.mn for more details & to keep an eye on our progress.
We are
leaving on the 5th July 2008 and hopefully returning sometime after (TBC).
If you are able to sponsor us - our chosen charity is SOS children's villages - we would be very grateful. SOS children's villages provides homes for orphaned and abandonned children, across the world. In Mongolia, they have set up a village in Ulaanbaatar, the capital city. However the village is overcrowded and in need of more services, and they are also trying to establish another children's village in northern Mongolia. Thank you for helping to support their valuable work - 100% of donations on this site go to the charity!!
www.soschildrensvillages.org.uk We are purchasing our own vehicle, which (assuming we make it) will be donated to
the CDPF (Children's Development Protection Fund), based in Mongolia, to sell at auction.
thanks for your support. - 'Team Kipper' (Paul & Nick)
