Day 1
Yesterday to bed at 11, up this morning at 5. Drive to the Chinese Wall to be in time for the starting ceremony at 7. The first car started 7.31, the driver is Anton Gonnisen, who together with his co-driver is driving or rather riding a trike. It is a Contal, in 1907 A Contal started but never got through Mongolia. Anton want to prove that it is possible! Second car was steam car from 1910, an amazing car and for sure it is a real challenge to drive it. Ferry (our Porsche) did well, we had an 11 hours drive on gravel, dirt and new roads. The off road sections were just a little taste of what we can expect in the weeks to come!
