We have a leaving date for our project! 10th November 2015. Yes, you might notice it is a little sooner than original date being generally in December. The reason for this is primarily because the window of opportunity to get through Egypt is starting to close, and this is the earliest date I am comfortable with in terms of what needs to happen before then.
Doubtless to say this will put me under pressure to get the money raised and be ready with a good plan, but the flip side to this is that I will be dedicated to the task as of August. As a very minimum we are needing £10,000 to get to Egypt, and a bit further beyond so please help anyway you can including spreading the word to as many people as possible!
I am currently working on a location in East London to launch from, and will update information on the our FaceBook page.

More power to you ladies I have considered this ride but always defer because of troubles in Egypt and Sudan but you have inspired me to do it next year – gods speed.

Go for it Lloyd – Sudan is actually really safe – South Sudan (now a separate country ) is the bit to avoid. Egypt ok now… We leaving earlier because it may not be so ok beginning next year. On my own it wouldn’t phase me so much but with my daughter travelling I have more to consider.
