Christophe Gombert, a fellow blokarter recently returned from the Gobi. You can tell he was on a bit of a personal mission. He sends us this report attached. Thought some of you future Gobi "blokart desert rats" might be interested.

Blokarts are boxed up ready for trip home. Europeans left Mongolia this morning and kiwis leave Mongolia for Beijing tonight.

Lesley, If I give you another satphone number and they call that, we should be able to see the number on the display.

El Zorro 09 May 2007 11:25

Don phoned Monday morning trying to figure out how we could phone the cellphone they had purchased. They can phone us but we cannot phone them.

Thanks, Yes I got that off the website as well, but was looking for how the sailors were going. I thought maybe there had been some personal updates that might be useful.

smokin' blokarter 08 May 2007 08:55

Yeah – anyone translate this for us?

El Zorro 08 May 2007 08:47

Perhaps the “Gobi Special” run flat tyres are the answer. Then blokart can charge a BMW price for wheels and the lights will stay on all the time.

El Zorro 02 May 2007 08:24

Check it out – Gobi Desert feature…. Or for those without a paper: http:/​/​www.nzherald.co.nz/​search/​story.cfm?

El Zorro 23 April 2007 08:16

Hi, I agree with Bill the other problem is over half the air pressure can disappear from your tire before it seals which maybe ok on the beach to get you home.

Winds Look good for the Bay also…. We are behind on our race series but will try and get an extra one in next week.

Don McKenzie 25 May 2007 09:39

Mike, Thanks for the update – blo-blading sounds great – and perhaps doable in a little less time than the Gobi would take.

El Zorro 01 February 2007 15:39

Grant, It was 20 f (-5c) Wind was generally 20 mph with gusts to 30. The guys were doing 30 mph (by Sean's GPS) Could have gone much faster but the snow was a little deeper then...
