That's a good one .
I was going to do the same in 2005...but to Hong Kong on my pushbike.
After spending a couple of thousand quid just on the bike and equipment, decided I'd miss my son too much.

I met a Brit in the UK once that was sitting in his Filipino passenger Jeepney in Milton Keynes.
He drove it back from R.P..
Now thats what I call adventure!
Think this is the one?
Now if this thing had an MOT,why does it still need a lump of 2x2 under the back wheel?

I hope he's coming back with the money raised...not just using it to finance his journey and to build a nice home extension in Laguna. I'm such an old cynic.

I suppose it could cost £5000 to do the journey when you take the time fuel and border bribes into consideration!
