Story

Jeremy Kidd, Jamie Lebrun and I are taking part in a wild adventure in January 2018. 

We are Three Kiwis One Rickshaw, and are attempting a mad endeavor which will (hopefully) see us complete 3000km down the length of India in a tiny, unreliable, three-wheeled Rickshaw.  

Boasting 7bhp, a top speed of 50kph (downhill) and the stability of a drunk horse walking a tightrope, the Rickshaw is perhaps the least desirable vehicle to cross a sub-continent in. We will encounter breakdowns, axle-breaking potholes, road-rule anarchy, and immovable cows in this two week adventure. There is a good chance we will not make the finish line and, since there is no set route, who knows where that will leave us...

What ever the case a mad journey awaits us, the agony and suffering culminating in a  treasured (or painful!!) memory.  We ask that you support our questionable decision with a donation to Cool Earth.  Please help support the great work this charity does in an essential, but often overlooked, feature of our planet.

We will have a blog running in the time before and during the rally, and we look forward to having you on this adventure with us.

Best regards,

Three Kiwis
