Rickshaw Run 2012 · 1 January 2012

We have a very clear vision: a world where people's lives are no longer limited by Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Story

We’ve signed up for the Rickshaw Run. What is this I hear you ask? Well ... its travelling the length of India from the border town, Jaisalmer, in the Rajasthan desert to the coastal city Kochi 4,000km in the south. Our mode of transport ... a Coreco and Greene & Co. sponsored rickshaw!

Imagine the quietest, fastest, safest all-terrain vehicle in the world ... Now imagine the opposite. Three wheels, half a horse power and more fun than any other vehicle on planet earth, the humble Rickshaw is undoubtedly the least suitable vehicle on the planet for covering the entire subcontinent in two weeks. Perfect.

Now imagine the bliss of trying to get this un-trusty steed over the Himalayas or across the Rajasthan desert. This then is the Rickshaw Run; an unsupported maniac of an adventure which wobbles over thousands of miles of ridiculous terrain. Probably the stupidest and the best thing you could possibly do with three weeks.

The team: Clueless and Frankie goes to Hyderabad ... two of the most directionally challenged people on the planet. We struggle to get from London Liverpool Street to Bow ... oh dear.

We are hopingto raise as much money as possible for Action Duchenne. Every little helps so as much as you can afford will be greatly appreciated.

Big love
