Two Weeks, Two Thousand Miles, One Cylinder
A father and daughter from Seattle take on the Sub-continent in an Auto-Rickshaw. On December 27 we leave Kochi near India's southern tip to begin a 2000 mile journey across the entire country to Darjeeling in the North. The whole trip will happen in an auto rickshaw. These contraptions are built on a motorcycle platform and have about 7 horsepower. After the race the Rickshaw will be given to poor families and individuals in Siligury by an NGO working under the watchful eye of Mercy Corps. Giving a Rickshaws to a poor family is huge life changing gift that enables them to earn a living without ending up in impossible debt for the initial purchase. They will provide us with full reports on how the distribution is going and ensure everything is done in a transparent and proper fashion. We're excited to support this charitable work on this crazy adventure. It will we quite a good show. Check out

Love, Dave & Susan
