Endurance Rally

Why are we going?

The older I get the more infuriated I become with that which I do not know.
Places i've never been to, every country I haven't been to taunts me.. "ha ha you haven't come to see me".

I go into book shops like Borders or Books etc. during my lunch hour and every book that interests me that I haven't read mocks me from shelves. All the American writers i'm reading, the French writers I haven't finished yet and all the Japanese I want to read..

And the Russians !! The Russians wrote big f***ing fat books that i'm never going to get through.. like "Peter Petrov Petrovolovic my good friend.." and i'm like ahh! i'll never know what happened!

So I want to read all those cool books, see all those cool films and go to all those countries.. and this makes me realise that there is no excuse for boredom!
Which brings me back to the point, if you don't go you'll never know.

You can read all the books you want but it's all like empty facts. Like if you read a book about Egypt it's kind of cool, you see a photo of the Sphinx and it's kind of cool, but then you go to Egypt and stand in front of the Sphinx and for seven long minutes you'll stand there with your mouth open thinking *******!!
And your week in Egypt is 14 hours a day saying stuff like NO WAY ! Get the f*** out of here !

So anyway the point of this trip is to go out into the world and see new countries that I haven't seen before. To make things even more interesting i've put various limitations on transport to make it more like and adventure/challenge, and I would like to invite anyone else interested to attempt this epic journey.
