Back in Doggy Biscuit! Hopefully for just one or two more days.
Officially the only team going backwards!
Came down for a change in scenery
Iranian border. Will try crossing tommorow. Some epic driving in the Turkish mountains today.
Found a decent camp for the night. Iran border tommorow evening to cross the day after!
Calling it a night. We're storming across Turkey. We're replanning the route slightly to make up for the delay in Croatia. By skipping Aizerbaijan and Georgia, we reckon we can go straight to Iran and be back on track.
Inches from Turkey! We got a tip of in Serbia about this sneaky quiet country border crossing.
Calling it a night. Istanbul tommorow!
Bulgaria border!
Finally made it out of the EU!

The DDR Devils are a foolhardy pair of Irish school friends taking on the 2017 Mongol Rally, a 10'000 mile trek towards the Steppes and away from reliable mechanics. All in aid of charity and adventure.
An engineer and a quantity surveying student, they bring to the table the brains, brawn and quantity surveying required of a truly world class rally team.
This blog chronicles their preparation, charity fundraising and ultimately the adventure itself. Keep an eye here for updates, drop a penny for the charities or just sit back and enjoy the ride.
