Mongolian Rally Mondays!

It’s Monday again! That means another update from our intrepid team of drivers preparing to brave the wilds of Southern Asia!

The team is still getting ready for the start of the event that gets underway next week and that means prepping the car for the perils of a harsh environment. You can’t have a proper adventure without Duct Tape!

Tuesday, I ran some errands, got some needed parts for the car; wiper blades, air filter, duct tape, and most importantly some new tyres for the car.

I got a set of nice reinforced commercial rated tires put on for the trip. The place we stopped (Tyre Zone, in Stockport, near Manchester) was great. A really cool bunch of guys, if anyone ever needs tyres in the Manchester area, this is your place.

Wednesday I made my way down to London, and picked up Christine. London is quite the adventure to get around in, especially when you are not completely used to the car, and which side of the road you are supposed to be on. With only a little help, some poorly scaled maps, and an international phone call or 2, we made it to the train station, where we hopped a train for France.

I will be back in the UK next Monday night, and the team will be at full strength then, and it willl be full on rally prep time.

Escape From Wonderland

Salutations, reader! Sorry, my son has been reading Charlotte’s Web in school and I was just dying to use that word. Anyway. When we last left Sticky, he’d fallen down the rabbit hole to Wonderland; only to be rescued by the dashing Mad Stick Hatter. And thus begins their perilous journey home. Miles and miles and miles….

Stickman is exhausted. Lose two days.

Through the dangerous snake filled ice caverns. Day and night. Until finally the Hatter relented and got Sticky a bicycle so he could keep up with the fancy shoed horse.

Stickman is low on bullets.

That’s unfortunate considering our intrepid adventurers have come across one of many Wonderland monsters. Don’t ditch the bike you fool! Peddle faster!

Stickman has a broken leg.

That’s what you get for panicking. Now you’ll never out run that spontaneous tornado. Wait, what’s that Hatter? Wonderland has co-opted Oz’s transportation? Stop running Sticky, that tornado just wants to hug you and take you home.

Stickman has reach Oregon! Congratulations!
