About the Adventure We are entering two teams into the 2008 Mongol Rally, Genghis Khan’t 1 & 2, with two drivers per car; hopefully one car will make it!

Genghis Khan’t 1; Kunaal Arora and Alex Stevenson.

Genghis Khan’t 2; Matthew Wilson and Tommy Read.

We are supporting two charities, the first, Mercy Corps Mongolia (A sub branch of Mercy Corps International) support rural communities and herding families through economic, educational and agricultural programmes. The second, Hope and Homes for Children aim to reunite children with their families in Eastern European countries and provide foster families for orphans.

The rules of the rally stipulate that we must take part in a car worth under £1000 and with a 1000cc engine or less. Providing we make it our cars will be donated to charity. Our vehicles of choice are two 1987 Fiat Panda 4x4’s, which we will be driving across Northern and Eastern Europe to the Middle East, up through Central Asia to the Steppes of Russia, hopefully reaching the Mongolian Capital Ulaanbaatar five weeks later. We will be driving over 10,000 miles around the world tackling mountain ranges, deserts, horrific or non-existent roads in our rusty sheds with only our wits, gaffer tape and enthusiasm to get us there.

In order to make this possible we need to raise a minimum of £1000 per team, however we would like to greatly exceed this target. Your donations, however big or small will be greatly appreciated.

good luck to matt and all the gang.

Tom Dawson

First donation from a real life Northenern, will probably be the last.

Graham Mckay

"We can't guarantee your arrival at the finish line, OR YOUR SAFETY!!" - From the website. I suppose good luck is in order and Steve-o, can i have your golf clubs if you don't come back?!

Susan Clarkson

Donation from Susan and Alan Clarkson.

Sarah Hodge

You must be mad, but good luck!!

Rachel Harness

Good Luck Guys! Enjoy and take care with the pandas.

Margaret Winters

Donation from Cornwall Marsh Railway appreciation group. Good Luck

Fred Mills

Good Luck. Saw a Planet Earth episode once which featured camels in the desert of outer mongolia - might be more reliable that the cars and if the sex drought (of which Mr Yaxley speaks) really kicks in, you could make love to one.

Charlie Ridley

Come back in one piece!

Matt Prior

Good luck lads and as the great man Genghis himself once said "It is not sufficient that I succeed - all others must fail" (just got that of Google!)

Gaz Peirson

I hope you get taken hostage by some arabs. But don't worry, I've heard they're a nice bunch.

kieran yaxley

good luck - u will definitely need it. cant imagine a less well equipped team than a couple of hicks from lincolnshire. its a long time to be away from your family - that means a long time without sex for you stevo.
