Team Nick Farnhill

<p>On 22 August this year, myself and twenty-four fool-hardy riders will mount our steeds amidst the ruins of the Great Khaan's ancient capital Kharkhorin, to face a grueling 1000 km world record breaking race across the empty wilderness of Mongolia. This will be no ordinary horse race. The Mongol Derby is not a test of the horse's speed, but the rider's skill, endurance and the toughness of the skin between our legs. </p><p>No ones ever done this before, so there's certain to be plenty of stories which I'll keep posted here. </p>
