Hi all,

No one has ever accused me of being impulsive or Cavalier, so I thought that needed rectifying as soon as possible. Henceforth, I've booked my place on a Charity event which will see me and possibly two teammates (definitely one), travelling across Nepal on a motorised rickshaw - Commonly known as Tuk Tuks. There should be about 50 Teams taking part, and it should be a hell of an adventure, and being the Monsoon season, hopefully reasonably dangerous.

All going to plan we will be going on June 23rd, I'll update you all with more details as I get them. Here's the site for the run, which should give you an idea of what we're trying to do.

The Rickshaw Run :: Rickshaw Run Welcome

Oooh... what a wonderful thing to do. Will, you said it was a charity run. Does this require people sponsoring you for x amount per mile?

We will be asking for sponsors in the near future, I think it will based on us being stupid enough to actually do it. Not completing the race isn't an option, at least one of us is a mechanic, and I think I remember how to use a compass and map.

So I will be asking for sponsors at some point soon, just not yet.

We've got a donation page together, if anyone would like to sponsor me and my friend James. Then please go to Justgiving - Rickshaw Run - Monkey Business

Even a couple of quid will go a long way to helping us achieve our target. Thank you in advance for what ever you can spare.

I see your list of necessaries to go in a backpack. I would not be without Arsenicum Alb. when travelling, especially to some countries... great for a dodgy tummy!

Will, do you need to sign up and login to donate??
