Only a week to go!

WOW, how quickly the last few months have passed. Here's hoping our month away passes somewhat slower.

We leave the beautiful Gold Coast next Saturday 24th Oct bright and early and fly to Udon Thani Thailand, the starting point for our adventure.

Our good friend Mr Moto (Amarin) has our bikes prepared and ready to roll! New Tyres and heavy duty tubes and we should be right.

Only a few weeks left on our latest fundraising campaign, feel free to check this out here of you can use the link on the top right of our Blog Page. Thanks to your support, we have raised enough money to purchase the uniforms and books for this years event. We had learnt that the school we are visiting doesn't have electricity or running water as the building is located approx. 1km from the village and they have not had the money or resources to make this connection happen. Well that's going to be changing very soon!

Any more funds we can raise will be used to help make this connection, meaning the kid's will be able to have electricity and running water to the village school in the near future. Imagine your child going to a school with no electricity and running water (For drinking and sanitation), something we take for granted in the first world.

Thank you to everyone for helping to make this happen each and every year, we are humbled by your support and dedication to this cause which we are so passionate about, without you, none of this would be possible!

We look forward to sharing this trip with you via our blog, with pictures and stories of our experience throughout this amazing journey. This year we will also have a GPS Tracker so you can see where we are live and watch our progress on the map in real time. Below is the link to this site (Note: It will not show a location until Saturday 24th onwards). There will be a fixed link at the top right of our blog page so feel free to follow us and leave us messages on our journey.

Track us live on GPS!

Kindest Regards, Chris Jilley & David Burrows
