The Mission
The Peking to Paris Rally is a recreation of the 1907 challenge issued by Le Matin, "Is there anyone who will undertake to travel this summer from Peking to Paris by automobile?"
The 2016 version will follow a route of 13,695 Km (8,510 miles) and take 35 days. We are travelling in Rhubarb and Custard, a 1936 Buick. We know nothing about cars or rallying.
Gentlemen,
ReplyDeleteI will be following your progress on the P2P. I drove a 1936 Buick in the 206 Great American Race, a rally from Philadelphia to San Rafael, CA. Ours was on paved roads, unlike yours, but the Buick behaved magnificently. God bless your trip and keep you safe!
