Thank you for having us, Varanesi! We arrived last night and briefly explored this morning before getting some miles in.
➡️ PB for number in people in a tuk tuk: 14 ➡️ Boat trip to see the famous Ganga Aarti Evening Ceremony ➡️ Speed bumps are not rickshaw friendly ➡️ Wonderful chai tea, coffee, snacks, and meals
Made it to Varanasi
It has been really fun travelling with the Dr Evil team for the last couple of days.
An early start this morning welcomed by a stunning sunrise over the peacful Bandhavgarh National Park and cooler temperatures. A welcome short break from the over 40-degree heat we have constantly had. My photos do not do justice to how beautiful this place is
Found some friends at the tiger park!
Braking down in a tiger nature reserve. Met some VERY KIND people who towed us out of the area for an our, using their tuk tuk.
- 5 breakdowns today - 9 breakdowns in total - Finishing the day with a well deserved beer
Our tuk tuk has started making some funky new noises today ... fingers crossed for tomorrow ...
Just hanging out in our hotel as no one will let us in for dinner or drinks as unaccompanied women
Lucy and I love our coffee ... Coffee portions are VERY small, sweet, and strong
Just bumbling along and trying not to crash!

We are raising money for the Rickshaw Run’s official charity Cool Earth who help protect our rainforests so if you can spare a few pennies for the planet, we’d be super grateful and it’ll be a welcome morale boost when we break down for the 100th time!
