Breadpig is on a rally car, a Mongol Rally car. As it speeds through Europe on its way to Mongolia, we're wishing the team well.
Exploding Marmalade plastered our porcine hero on the side of their car in exchange for some moral support and a donation to Mercy Corps. We were thrilled to oblige on both counts. Thanks for carrying our banner, gentlemen!
They've just gotten started, but it looks like they're already in Romania at the time of this writing. Here's their latest update, but since it'll already be old news by the time you read it, you'd better follow them on twitter:
On the road since last Friday and so far we are doing well.We have covered 1466 miles and are currently in Brno, Czech Republic and should be making our way today to Budapest, Hungary and then onto Romania.
We have had a great first few days on the rally from the launch at Goodwood, UK to the Czechout Party in Klenova Castle.
Unfortunately we had to say goodbye to our teammate Pedro and dropped him at Gatwich after the launch.We know he wanted to come all the way and we wish him and his wife all the best with the new arrival.
All the teams have now dispersed each going different routes and this will become the real challenge.We are still experiencing very good road conditions and hope to well into Romania.The Berlingo is doing well and has now been christened Bertie.We have only had to change one tyre and re-attach the exhaust but other than that Bertie is loving the road.
