Today the rally really starts we spent 3 hour crossing the border before before heading north west beside the Railway kine to our firt camp 210 kilometres away.
2 kilomiters past the border into Mongolia the tar seal road finishes and the road is just a series of wheel tracks in the desert.
Penny went very well all day handleing the bump and ditchs very well. the only problem was we had o stop and changer a wheel because we where using to low a tyre preasure and rolled a tyre of the rim,but not a major.
We arrived in camp that night at 4.30 pm after taking 6 hours to drive the 210 kilometres.That night a cars were still limping into at 8.30 pm and some people camping in the desert for the night.
This area of the Gobi had a lot off Wild Horses and many groups of Bactrian Camels
A good looking tent!!
