We have admired The Adventurists from afar for a long time as they organise some of the nuttiest, most dangerous, glorious jaunts known to man and coming up later in the year is one of their vintage offerings: The Mototaxi Junket. This is a race across Peru in a Mototaxi which, for those in the dark, is pretty much a sofa with a moped attached and by their own admission is not much good at steering, stopping or lasting anything over 10 miles. And there’s the problem, this race is 3500km. Well, actually that’s just the start of the challenges because there’s no set route, buttock clenching drops, climbs so high that the engine gasps for air and other that pass under 6 foot of water.
