THE RICKSHAW RUN	SIGN UP FOR: Winter 2012 31st -14th January	The Rickshaw Run is pretty simple. With no preparation and less luggage one flies to the Indian Subcontinent and does one's damndest to force 150cc of Indian engineering over thousands of miles of questionable terrain in around two weeks.Upon arrival we pause briefly for a game of cricket followed by tea and cakes before revving our engines and setting off. We stop only to wet our whistles on the occasional gin and tonic at specially selected refreshment points. Initially the Rickshaw Run happened but twice a year, but due to massive demand from 2009 on 'twill be thrice. Slotted neatly in between the Winter Run starting on New Year's day and September's Monsoon Run, the extra event will takes place in the Spring.
