About this listen
The 9 th . Peking to Paris Motor challenge got under way last Saturday, the
event covering 14,500 kilometres over 37 days across twelve countries. 80
entries started at the Great Wall of China including five from Australia, with
this year’s challenge taking crews across China, Mongolia, Kazakhstan,
across the Caspian Sea to Azerbaijan continuing into the tough tracks of
Georgia and Turkey, followed with a sting in the tail across Bulgaria,
Romania, Hungary, Austria, Switzerland before finishing in France. A true
historic vehicle and human endurance challenge that follows in the tracks
of the original 1907 pioneers. The entry fee per vehicle to participate with a
crew of two 69,000 pounds. Entries include vehicles up to 1985 – the
oldest vehicle this year from Melbourne’s Alan Madan – a 14.5 litre 1917
American La France, formerly a fire truck. I’m David Berthon
