Team Update 23rd April



Website News
Ian (Team Kangaskhann) and Neil (Team WombatsKhan) have decided to develop Website’s for each individual Team to allow our family, friends and followers to have easier access to each Team’s progress during the Rally.

Our combined Blog (This one) will remain in place and will be updated in the lead up to the Rally start on the 13th July. After the start the way in which you get updates will be slightly different, and will be explained in the next month or so.

In the meantime, please continue to use this Blog for all things WombatsKhan and Kangaskhann.

Visa’s
Both Teams are busy applying for entry visa’s for Kazakhstan, Russia, Mongolia and China. This is time consuming and at times a worrying process, as you lose your passports for extended periods of time.

Cars
Both cars are parked up at Neil’s sisters place in Devon (UK). They will be moved to another location within the next month, to allow some preparation work to start on them. New tyres, under side protection, suspension tweaks and sturdy roof racks for starters.

What would you do to raise funds for charity?
We have raised over $19,000 to date for our Charities.
The Team’s want to bring the total fund raising for Charity much closer to the $25k goal before we set off in July.
Would the following encourage you all to dig deeper and help the Team’s reach their goal, or can you think of something equally as stupid:
For reaching $22,000 before the 13th July 2013, Neil (Team WombatsKhan) to dress up as a 1970’s Punk Rocker complete with a real Mohican Haircut, clothes and safety pin earring, as we enter and cross the border of Russia, Kazakhstan and Mongolia, and get photo’s with officials at each border crossing….preferably not being carted off to the slammer.
 
 
 
Thats it for now.......more later....
