The Mongol Rally is like the Dakar Rally only without the handy infrastructure. Anyone can enter without the backing of a major manufacturer. Whereas the rest of these entries have carefully organised routes and rest stops, Mongol Rally has a finish line and tickets for your flight home from Mongolia 10 weeks from the start point. If you don’t get there in time you’re on your own – some incentive.
As well as providing backing for worthy charities as well as new vehicles for the Mongolian people, this 16,000km journey is a test of your riding and also your character. Injuries and poor directions are common, deaths aren’t unheard of and bribing your way to cross borders is commonplace. The Mongol Rally is not for the faint hearted.
