The Iron Badgers In July 2015, the IRON BADGERS will ride tiny motorcycles through Europe and in to Mongolia in the n If nothing goes wrong, everything has gone wrong.

Welcome to the Mongol Rally: the greatest motoring adventure on the planet! On Sunday the 19th of July 2015, the IRON BADGERS will be embarking on a life-changing journey from London, England, thundering over 16,000 kilometers across mountains, desert and steppe of Europe to Asia, to finish about a month later, and over a quarter of the way around the globe, in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. There’s no ba

ckup, no support and no set route; just you, your fellow adventurists and the road ahead. Bo****ks to tarmac, ABS and gadgets that help you find your way. The Mongol Rally is about getting lost, using your long neglected wits, raising shedloads of cash for charity and scraping into the finish line with a wild grin smeared across your grubby face. http://www.gofundme.com/ironbadgers

Feeling pretty much the same as I was back then. This was taken just after we finished the first part of our adventure back in 2015, when we road a couple of CT110/125’s from Sydney to almost Melbourne.. It seems that history is repeating itself with another blown piston!.......................................................
Only a couple of weeks now before the badgers are back together and on the road, well hopefully anyway! @ Kustom Kommune

It was no Karaoke hangover, though while I munched down my second helping of overpriced airport breakfast Gyoza I decided that maybe drinking till sunrise was probably a bad decision... The announcement came over the speakers that my flight to Shanghai was to be once more delayed, though at this point I was so deep into a Badge winning tournament on my Pocket Morty game I was actually thankful.

Well s**t... it happened again, complete radio silence for the better part of a year. I'm sure most of you thought it was all over. However we are suckers for punishment, and until we reach Mongolia the show must go on! As I confessed in an earlier post (at least I think I did) I'm not a writer or a blogger, hence why the updates have been few and far between. [ 643 more words ]

Imagine you were about to embark on a trip around the world... or at least half of it... what would do? I'd imagine you'd probably organise your itinerary, book your visa's, plan a schedule, pay off your credit card/s, get your travel insurance and save a heap of cash.... We did none of this.. in fact to recap... we managed to break a motorbike we'd made for charity, spend half my money on my house which was collapsing, book zero visa's, didn't get the British passport (which would have been immensely helpful), barely chip into the credit card debt, oh and insure what now?

We've been held up in Georgia for over 2 weeks now, as we sit with our fingers crossed, while we run the gauntlet of the Russian visa. If you're reading this for simply information about how or if this can be done... skip to the last two paragraphs.... After another successful border crossing*, we found ourselves in Georgia after spending a month in change in Turkey, it was exciting to be somewhere new. [ 1008 more words. ]

Met these two awesome the other night whilst in Turkey. After night fell, my following encounters included a pack of wild dogs who I continually barked at for most of the night, a bunch of drunk dudes coming at me wielding bats, assuming I was an illegal immigrant (I promptly lit up what I thought to be my last cigarette) and then finally the border police...
