One could ask - why would one want drive from Silkeborg to Capetown??? Two reasons. One, we both love Africa. Two, we are both crazy for a bit of adventure. Nearly a year ago we got ourselves a 4x4 from England and started getting it ready for the trip of our lives. On this site you can follow our progress up to now - and of course the trip itself which starts in a month. You can contact us on ashtonjk@gmail.com

Below you can see the vehicle, before we began working on it, with me John and my better half Karen by my side. We will soon be setting off on the journey of our lives, follow our escapades on our homepage.
