Were the Creeping Blandness Prevention Group, a team on the 10,000mile Mongol Rally from England to Mongolia. When we last checked in the team had made it across the Caspian Sea and most of the way through Kazakhstan. A lot has IWC replica watches happened since then well focus on the exciting phase from the RussiaMongolia border to the capitol of Mongolia, Ulaan Baatar.In Siberia, about 900km from the border with Mongolia, 3 out of our 4 team members had to fly home for work obligations. This left only me (Andrew) to carry on the teams mission and reach Mongolias capitol, Ulaan Baatar, where the car would be donated to charity. Our choice of the Western border entry at Tashanta meant I would be offroading for about 1000 miles in a 1.3L Skoda Felicia station wagon!
The border experience was absolutely awful. Ill spare you the details, but it ended up taking 2 days, lawsuit threats, a sitin protest by about 60 people from 39 teams, and $17 each to get in to Mongolia. By this point Id joined up in a convoy with a Corum replica watches few other cars from the border experience: Fellow Americans Team Flatlanders and Rubikcrew, Twingo Mis Dudas from Spain, and Bembeltoads from Germany. Flatlanders Andrew and Mike abandoned their Citroen Saxo in Olgii (about a days drive from the border) after basically everything broke on it. Just outside the city they had hit a rock and put a hole in their oil pan.
