The Road To Mongolia - A documentary about the Mongol Rally.
The Road to
Mongolia is a 50 minute documentary following the adventures of the
CPR Quarterhorse team –
Brian, Kev and
David – as they drive a
1.2 litre
Vauxhall Corsa from the
North-East of England to
Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia.
Captured through over 900GB of footage on a GoPro camera by the Quarterhorse team, the documentary has taken
18 months to edit together and tells the story of the teams’ journey through 13 countries, across the thick end of 8000 miles, in 27 days – the things they saw, the people they met, the accidents they had, and the effect this momentous challenge has had on them.
As with all who do the
Mongol Rally, Brian, Kev and David raised money for chosen charities:
The Blue Marine Foundation:

And
Cool Earth: http://www.coolearth.org/
Please visit these sites to see the fantastic work of these charities and give what you can.
The documentary was directed and edited by

All of the music for the documentary was supplied by the brilliant
Kowalski – if you like what you hear (and you’re mad if you don’t), visit their site on Bandcamp to download their tracks:

The film was produced by
Brian Clarke, David Pye, Kev Robson &
Sara Robson – the latter two being two halves of
Wild Dog Outdoors, a
Northumberland based company who specialise in
Outdoor activities, bushcraft and historical guided tours:
