PHOTO: SUPPLIEDA seven-strong group of friends taking part in a 16,000km London-Mongolia rally for charity think they will probably break down in every country they visit - but it's not putting them off. The "Mo Riders" group, which includes two Dunedin men, is trying to organise two cars to take on the 16,000km Adventurists Mongol Rally, which begins in mid-July. "We just saw it online, and thought it was a suitably stupid thing to do," Mr Sander said. The group will start fundraising in the next couple of weeks, and already had a Facebook page and Mospace charity page for the trip.
