What's This All About?

Taking place annually for over a decade, the Mongol Rally is an event involving hundreds of teams driving tiny vehicles across Europe and Asia-- a quarter of the way around the planet -- to raise money for a variety of good causes. It's not a race, and there aren't any winners or losers per se. Rather, the goal is to simply make it in your car to the finish line and see a large, beautiful chunk of the world along the way!

The Rules

The Adventurists -- the British group that loosely organizes the Mongol Rally every year -- have instituted just 3 main rules:

1. You can only take a farcically small vehicle (up to a 1.2l engine)

2. You’re completely on your own (participants figure out their route and get no backup support if they break down)

3. You've got to raise at least £1000 for charity
