**We're on our way.....Saturday, July 22**

The car seems to be sucking down some oil while we're driving, but there's not much we can do about that now. It looks to be a long coule of days, with the car chock full of caming crap, fuel, and all other sorts of explosive materials. Follow along on the blog from here on out. And while you're at it, take a look at our blinged out beauty.

Dear friends, members of the press, immigration officials. We would like to introduce you to our hard charging rally team for the 2006 Mongol Rally. Our basic premise is as follows: take men with as little experience as possible in the art of rallying, fixing cars, and navigating back roads. Add in a car desperately unqualified to handle 6000 miles of driving. Obtain visas for as many countries ending in -stan as possible. Drive from London to Mongolia while living in Low-Rent-Decadence™.

In short, welcome to our adventure. This July and August, we are bringing Western decadence to the desert. We are going to be the pashtouns of central Asia and promise to take you along in our 1988 Daihatsu Hi Jet as we barrel in velour splendor from London to Mongolia . To be direct, we would like to invite you to follow along with our planning, our bickering, and our inevitable misfortunes as two sets of brothers and other makers of mischief hit the road.

The Crew

While we are all boy scouts, round the world travelers, and generally not always foolish, on this trip we are taking a total lack of preparation as our guideline. We still have our motto: "don't get dead," but everything else is up to fate. Click Here

The Rally Team Welcomes You

Welcome to our rally team. London to Mongolia in a 1L Daihatsu Hi Jet. That's the basic premise. The implementation, a little more complicated. Come take a look at where we're planning on going. Click Here

The Hi Jet

Described by Xhibit as a Toaster on Donuts, this is our trusty (we hope) steed. Take a look at what a crap car this really is. A horse might get us there faster. Click Here

A Total Lack of Preparation

Come see how we are planning to take our little Hi Jet through the wilds of the near east. Click Here
