Taking a break from driving to mingle. Just been hustled at pool by a 13 yr old at an outdoor table in the middle of the desert. Bizarre. As is the hot milk.

The convoy of two remains and meeting a lot of other teams on the road in various states. Starsky & Clutch are still doing well. Hope Cristina is better

610km from ub & we have no front left shock, front right spring is cracked, air filter is held on with cable ties, the carb has dirt in it & its raining..

We have a choice: admit defeat & get a lorry to ub to arrive in one piece but miss the party. Or just go for it & hope for the best. You know our decision.

Mongolian roads as unforgiving as kazak. Many cars dying. 800km to the finish line and 48 hours til the party. Averaging 24kph. It's going to be close

At 15.36 this afternoon we entered Mongolia. Since then bad roads, no signs but utterly amazing scenery. Fingers crossed can complete the last leg.

Roads better in Mother Russia: only lost exhaust once. Bros: Challenge 1 completed + video footage. Successful trial for challenge 2 at 50mph-start saving!

When the day ends over the sunflower fields, the countess follows red and silver beyond the sand of the east to the temple where the cold ones wait.
