Our personal message:

The Woody Hoodies are 4 people on a mission to drive our £100 car from Calais to Rimini, raising money for Adoption UK along the way ;o) And, whether brave or mad, we will also be driving the beauty home again.....about 2,800 miles in total!!

The Scally Rally consists of 100 cars undertaking daily challenges on the trip from Calais to Rimini. As cars have to cost £100 or less, the first challenge was finding a car! The second was getting it from Bristol to Woodford, third was getting it to move under it's own steam .... and we expect more along the road to Rimini, not forgetting the 47 hairpin bends on the Stelvio pass! Check out: www.scallyrally.co.uk/17.html

Anyone who wants to follow the trials and tribulations of 2 men, 2 women, a 19 year old 535, and 4 days to get to Rimini, please visit our myspace page: www.myspace.com/woodyhoodies and view some pics at http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=28456&l=6100a&id=538916592

We are raising money for Adoption UK, based locally in Banbury and where a quarter of the team works! All donations are gratefully received.
