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.

Russian Hotels


Tea making facilities, but no kettle. Fairly typical of inability to join the dots.

  1. You people in the West; so spoilt! You even expect mechanic to have own tools. You probably expect custard with your rhubarb.
