Daza Sherwin- “The Greatest Motoring Adventure on the Planet” (The Mongol Rally)

We were well entertained by Daza Sherwins adventure showing his and his fellow adventurous mate’s trip from England through Europe and into the east via Turkey and the “Stan Countries” to end at Ulan-Ude, a town in Siberia.

This was a true adventure starting from the purchase of a second hand Suzuki 4WD in England on the internet sight unseen for a mere 1,500 GBP and then modifying it to store their kit surfing gear so they could use along the way set the scene. This was a true number 8 Kiwi style adventure where having run out of money on the last legs of the journey with the vehicle sick from a midnight crash, and time taken to make temporary repairs they proceeded to use snickers bars to barter their way through checkpoints and borders.

Unfortunately the presentation was interrupted by computer glitch which meant we were not able to see all the photos of the journey but the descriptions provided by Daza were sufficient to keep us well entertained and informed.

Daza promises to return and talk about their next adventure.
