  • Half way mechanical update

    28. August 2019 in Bulgarien ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    We are just entered Macedonia and we are half Way through the rally.

    The Car is still doing great but start showing some personality and charm. The fuelmeter is broken and dance lige crazy. One tire is sliced after the mountain climb, The sunroof dosnt work any more. The left frontlight felt off, throgh the boarder and is repared with gaffatape. The front bumper is dameged after we went airborn throgh Sofia last Night. The automatic gearbox is getting cranky and Will only shift with 4500rpm and after each shift it coughing like a life long smoker. All the interior is basically put together with Gaffatape. And on the backseat we have a deadline cowboy as aleays.

  • Mechanical update 2.0 exploded rims

    28. August 2019 in Nordmazedonien ⋅ ☀️ 33 °C

    Half way +50km through the Rally both tires and rims on the right side of the car exploded, when we hit a pothole in the road. We only had one spare tire and were in the middel of nowhere in Macadonia.

    Happily some locals stopped by and we sent Claus with Them to the nearest City to fix the rims. They couldnt speak English or German so we handeled it on our Charm. While Claus were fixing tires, the rest of the cowboys went sunbathing. To hours later we where back Rolling. #DontWorry - We Got This!!

  • Albanian border

    29. August 2019 in Albanien ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C

    After a bit of miss communication and a bit of border que, the cowboys made it to Albania. Mads handed the border officer our passports through the window and dropped our car registration papers on the ground.. the officer didn’t even open our passports, but just laughed and said “Bye” - We’re used to having to pay fines at the borders, so Mads replied “what you want to buy??” - officer laughed and said “Goodbye 😁”Weiterlesen

  • 1984 Olympic ski jump facility, Sarajevo

    1. September 2019 in Bosnien-Herzegowina ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

    Road challenge in Sarajevo was to find the 84 olympics ski jump facilities and take a picture from the highest possible point with the entire team and car. Two cowboys had some fun climbing the jumps, while the third poor little cowboy slept it off in the car. Unfortunately the trees blocked the view from the top to the car.. but on the last picture you should be able to zoom in and see a leg hanging out the car window 🤠🤠🐮🏎🦵🏆 Of course we had to practice our jump technique... Next olympics, We Got This!Weiterlesen
