This July 22nd I will be setting off from Hyde Park in London for the 3rd Annual Mongol Rally I will be riding the Classic Honda c90 approximately 8000 miles from London to Ulaan Bataar in Mongolia I will be the first ever and only motorcycle entrant to be attempting this grueling journey for the chance to raise money for several worthy charities
Send a Cow. Provides a fascinating approach to helping poor families in Africa
CNCF. A truly inspirational Mongolian Children’s Charity
Mercy Corps. This is an amazing charity taking a careful and effective approach to helping the poor in rural Mongolia
Wildlife CRU. Their approach not only benefits the endangered and little studied species but the local economy and community as well.
CAMDA. Bringing veterinary aid to thousands of horses in 2 Northern provinces. 29,000 horses were given life-enhancing inoculations in 2004 and in 2005 and it is being extended to a third. In 2006 they aim to reach more than 45,000 horses in these 3 areas.
I hope to achieve £8000 for my gruelling journey a mere £1 for every mile to help the above charities and cant thank you all enough for all the information helping me prepare anybody wanting to view my team page can do so at www.londontomongolia.co.uk

First of all many thanks for everybodys support and emails i finally arrived in Mongolia on the 25th August after five hard weeks riding, from blowing the engine in Germany, getting knocked into a field in Poland,almost mugged in the Ukraine,awaking to a snake in Kazakhstan struggling through miles or dirt track at 50 degrees to freezing my balls off in Siberia i loved every minute and have already started planning to take a different route next year using the Honda Monkey bike a truly fantastic adventure with the best result of helping the street children of Mongolia
