About the Adventure
A crazy road trip across India in the fantastically unreliable 150cc lump of Indian engineering known as the Rickshaw. We'll be braving desperate heat and humidity, monsoons, lunatic Indian drivers, dodgy curries, corrupt cops and of course trying not to maim ourselves all in aid of two excellent charities: the Frank Waters Project and the Mercy Corps.
We'll be updating the webpage soon so check out:

for more details and updates over the coming weeks!
These are both very good charities, your help is much appreciated, thanks.

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...
