Engine coming off engine mountain and caused fuel tank to come off its mount and intake came off carburettor again. All put back together again.
Gasket head blown but replaced and she purs now!
What a delightful country. When people stop to help us we say “thank you, thank you’ and they reply by saying “Do not say thank you, please. You are a guest of India. I am here to help”.
Charging down dirt roads for three days. Absolutely bloody charging.
Team-work required for leaning into sharp corners.
Air intake keeps on falling off carburettor. Carburretor full of crap and keeps on failing. Man with no legs fixed carburettor for us and his fiveyearold twin sons help by passing tools and running errands for spare parts.
Have been taken in by local families most nights.
Air intake fell off carburettor again. Leaked a lot of fuel. Need to find some fuel! Luckily can cruise down from mountains in neutral for most
We appear to have the fastest rick in the race - topping 65kmph down hills.
Landscape is desert. Lots of shepherds needing a lift by the side of the road. We gave them a lift.
Stayed at local family’s house in small desert village. They helped us pack in the morning.
Starting in Jaisalmer - At the Prince of Rhajasthan’s royal residence! 3000km to go.
