My story

 

On July 5th 2008 Al, Tom and Dec will be embarking on an adventure. We are taking part in The Mongolia Charity Rally (www.mongoliarally.com), a pan-continental drive across five mountain ranges, two deserts and more barren and inhospitable lands than you care to shake a stick at. Starting in London, the final destination is the capital of Mongolia, beyond the Gobi desert, Ulaanbaatar. The Journey will be around 8,000 miles.

Our route will take in the delights of France, Belgium, Germany, Czech Rep, Slovakia, Hungary, Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan (again), Russia (again), and finally Mongolia.

We will undertaking this mammoth journey in a Fiat Panda that we have named The Slanda Panda. Its an excellent piece of machinery but could get a little cramped after a few days.

Slanda Panda Trivia - The guy who sold it to us said that it used to belong to ex Rolling Stone Bill Wyman.

You will be able to follow our progress on the trip and our preperations for it via our website that should be live shortly and on our facebook group.

All the money we raise here goes directly to charity and not to the cost of the trip. If you would like to help cover our costs for petrol, visas etc, or can offer us anything free that would be useful on our trip like camping equipment car parts etc please contact me at alex @apollohr.com. 

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Save the Children will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Thanks for supporting Team Slanda Panda!
