About the Adventure
Marcus, Mills and Vanraaj (Vinny) like adventures, though this one might be slightly more intrepid than most. Monsoon in India beats drizzle in London though.
On June 1st, we will be racing from Kathmandu in Nepal down to Pondicherry in SE India on a rickshaw. That's somewhere in the region of 2,500 miles and probably a lot more if Mills is map reading. We're aiming to do this in less than 15 days, although there's every chance we'll have all grown big bushy beards by the time we actually do make it.
We'd really like you to sponsor us as we're not just doing this jaunt for fun, although undoubtedly there will be much merriment in amongst the grimaces. Mercy Corps India and Frank Water are both inspiring charities that are making real differences to people's lives in India. So please give generously.
Thanks all
xx

The Rickshaw Run Summer 2008 is pretty simple. With no preparation and less luggage one flies to the subcontinent and does one's damndest to force 150cc of Indian engineering over thousands of miles of questionable terrain in around two weeks.
Upon arrival in Nepal we pause briefly for a game of cricket followed by tea and cakes before revving our engines and setting off. We stop on...

Years ago, you served my father in the Clone Wars; now he begs you to help him in his struggle against the Indian Empire. I regret that I am unable to present my father's request to you in person; but my ship has fallen under attack and I'm afraid my mission to bring you to SE India has failed. I've placed information vital to the survival of the rebellion into the memory systems of this VSP2 unit. My father will know how to retrieve it. You must see this droid safely delivered to him at Ponticherry. This is our most desperate hour. Help me, Mills and Marcus; you're my only hope
