The Rickshaw Run looks like a crazy adventure. And I agree that driving in India is crazy. The prospect of breaking down would be daunting for me without the ability to call a service to fix the tuk tuk. But I am very good at communicating with charades. You sure did look like you had an amazing time.

That sounds insane! The bathroom alone would be enough to make just go with adult diapers. HA.

This is amazing! I would do this in a heartbeat. I love your comment about it being like a Japanese game show.
Years ago my plan to go to Indi, and my husband to return, was foiled by poorly planning for my visa. Ended up in SE Asia instead which was equally as fantastic!

In reply to Henry Malmgren.

The adventurists have multiple types of races throughout the year period with regards to the Rickshaw Run they seem to be doing it 3 times a year. Usually around January 1st, another race around the end of April into May, and a third one in August or so

Sounds like a totally crazy, but totally incredible and memorable adventure!! Great tip to take some mechanic classes before hand, because yes, I can see how driving a rickety rickshaw across India will see you break down once or twice!! Haha and I love that one of the points here was improving your defensive driver skills 😀

This sounds amazing and I feel like my husband and I need to add this to the list of things to experience! I mean I convinced him to climb Mt Kilimanjaro with me, so I’m sure I can get him to do this!

Love, love this post! I am an Indian, and I can relate to everything you’ve mentioned. From squat toilets, ‘hotel’ to people and languages. 🙂

To be honest, it’s a daunting task to drive a tuk tuk for that long. 🙂
