We're home! After 2 long weeks and 4,500 miles, a problem with Valerie's cooling system meant we had to duck out and fly home from Astana, the capital of Kazakhstan. Absolutely gutted about it, but maybe another attempt to reach Mongolia next year will be on the cards!!

A full diary will be put up soon, but for now you can read through the text blog that we updated whilst on the road HERE

what's this all about then?

Team First Gear consists of Paul Mason (Right) Kevin Neill (Left) and Valerie Vitara (Centre). We were formed when Andy Neill, Kevin's father and owner of www.1stgearmtc.co.uk accepted Kevin's most generous offer of sponsorship in return for not scrounging the money off him for nothing!

Team First Gear have entered into a rally organised by Go Help, a UK based charity created to promote an ethical model of charity rallying. The boys will be leaving from London, England on the 5th July 2008 and heading for the capital of Mongolia, Ulaan Bataar in aid of the Children's Development and Protection Fund (CDPF) and CAMDA. The aim of our participation in the rally is to:

• Raise over £1,000 for the listed charities.
• Raise awareness of the charities involved.
• Provide the CDPF with a useable 4x4 vehicle.
