The Banger Rally - Adventure Behind the Wheel!

Tuesday, April 18, 2006
Outside Online the web home for Outside Magazine has a really fun article up from their April issue. The article entitled Gentlemen, Destroy Your Engines is a wonderful look at the Banger Rally, a 4500 mile long car race from Reading, England to Dakar, Senegal. Along the way they cross the English Channel, scream across Europe to southern Spain, crossing the Straits of Gibraltar, and into Morocco and over the Atlas Mountains to the sands of the Sahara.

I don't know about you, but this sounds like an awesome, and demanding, roadtrip to take with great friends. Last year 33 teams entered, driving some really crappy vehicles. Talk about an adventure!
