The Adventurists Mongol Rally 2014
What`s this you say? Mongolia is 10,000 miles from Upper Heyford - who in their right mind would go there!
Well, Marc Colclough-Hoey and Ray Funnell from the village of Upper Heyford are doing just that, to support two great charities -Cool Earth Rainforest Preservation and Craft -Aid UK, a small positive thinking charity helping those in Uganda with clean waterwells and clinics.
Our mission is to take this, our 28 year old Suzuki SJ410 with it`s 950cc engine (slightly larger than a lawnmowers), through 20 countries, covering 5 deserts and 3 mountain ranges to the capital of Mongolia Ulaanbaatar ,over a period of 8 weeks!,Oops, forgot to mention, and bring it back! Our start date from Upper Heyford Reading Room is Friday 18th July 2014 and sail from GB the next day.
This is us and our quest. We will keep you informed and aware of our progress so watch this space IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE A SPONSOR and have your company associated with this absurd adventure, be first and email either
