The Boys Are Back!

Two guys at work, father and son, along with another guy, have just returned from their mad trip across the US in aid of Motor Neurone Disease (MND).

So, you might say, big deal, driving across the US for charity ain't that big a challenge. And booking a car to take you from one side to the other, can't be that hard, now, can it?

Of course, Lee and his Dad, Mark, had to drive something they were familiar with. So, they took their own car with them. A classic Mk1 Escort no less :-O

The website, Fords On Tour explains the trip, pictures, and stories, as well as news on previous trips (Yes, they've been elsewhere). I particularly like the story about entering a local car show, only to win the "Travelled furthest" trophy by quite a margin ;-)

There's a website is available for donations, if you want to reward what has to be one of the maddest ways of raising cash for charity that I've ever heard :-D
