HIYAAAAAA!!!!

Hello, welcome, and congratulations for choosing to arrive at the Magnificent Bastards' website. Hopefully you'll not be disappointed, mainly because you have very low expectations.

If you don't already know what this is all about, then allow me to explain. Come July 2010, myself and hopefully whoever else I can convince to join me, will be setting off from Glasgow and making our merry way across Europe, skirting around the Middle East, through Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan and finally arriving in Mongolia. All in the name of adventure and charity.  

There'll be laughter, there'll be blood, there'll be sweat and no doubt there'll be tears as well. But hopefully we'll all come through it in near enough one piece, eh?

Of course, it wont all be fun and games. The main aim is to raise as much money as possible for the Mercy Corps. A charity that are doing some amazing work with long-term projects out in Mongolia, as well as in many other countries across the world. As well as asking people to donate some cash, we'll also be leaving our car in Mongolia for it to either be auctioned off with the money going to the Mercy Corps. Or it'll be donated to someone in Mongolia to use as transport.

As well as all that, if any companies are generous enough to donate some money or equipment to help us reach our target, then we can gladly offer some advertising space on our car for some really unique advertising opportunities.
