We need your help! Support our charity, as we race Tuk Tuks 3,000km across India.
Manawatu / Whanganui
Welcome to our fundraising event for the 'Missing Wingman Trust'!
A 3,000km Indian fundraising adventure in a 7 horsepower glorified lawnmower. This Tuk Tuk race is easily the least sensible thing to do with two weeks.
No set route, no back-up, no way of knowing if we're going to make it. The only certainty is that we will get lost, we will get stuck and we will break down.
It'll be just us in a wholly unsuitable vehicle, traversing the subcontinent enduring whatever shit the road throws at us, or vice versa.
Essentially, it's not a very good idea. The Tuk Tuk's not very fast, it smells, it falls over when you go round corners, it breaks downs more often than an emo teenager and a days driving will feel like we've been kicked up the arse by an elephant. But somehow, the thought of fundraising will make this all seem worth it.
And so they are, unquestionably, the greatest vehicle on the planet. To prove it, we will use these beasts to their full potential and even do a victory skid.
