Many of you have followed us on the 2015 "Road to Mandalay" and on the 2012 “London to Cape Town” rallies. On June 12 we will start to drive 14 000 km on the "Peking to Paris" rally. The race will take us through Mongolia & Siberia driving through 11 countries until we reach Place Vendôme in Paris on July 17.
We will try to post a short comment on our blog on most days with the exception of Mongolia where we will have no internet access.

Time trial in the mud on a palm tree plantation
Today we lost our fourth gear :( we are now driving with three gears...which is possible but until when?...
With only three gears we managed to go up in the ranking.
We hope to be able to reach Georgetown on Thursday evening. Currently we are examining our options to replace the gear box on Friday (the rest day).
