     We Team Shoeless will be driving a third of the way around the earth, from England to Mongolia via a plethora of countries most people haven't heard of in a car that has no off road capabillities and a tiny engine! The rally finishes in the Mongolian capital Ulaan Baatar around 4-5 weeks and a whole heap of adventure later. It's abot 10,000 miles depending on the route we choose and we are planning on driving all the way home too, all without shoes on!!!

border for mongolia closed until the morning so chilling in a field outside border control with some local children who are loving the mountain board! The scenery is immense here snow topped mountains and an open plateau! Awesome!
