The basic premise behind this expedition is to take the smallest, least practical vehicle available in Asia, force ourselves into it and then to traverse across several thousand miles of Indonesian Archipelago and South East Asian terrain.&nbsp;</font></span></p><p><span><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif">From the coral fringed island of Ko Lanta through precipitous mountain tracks, sublime coastal roads and the dense Sumatran jungle to the cacophonous melee of Jakarta, this is adventuring stupidity in it's finest form. There's no guarantee of making it to the finish line and no back-up. Its just half a horse power of engineering genius and a dazzling panoply of countries.&nbsp;</font></span></p><p><span><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif">We stoutly believe that there is still adventure to be found in the world. We just need to try that little bit harder to find it. Let's cut new edges into our maps, slip on our dinner jackets and set forth into the world to find out what happens.</font></span></p><p><span></span><span></span><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif">We will be rasing some much needed funds for both Strathcarron Hospice and Bird Life International.&nbsp;Any donations would be greatly appreciated.
