[quote=KIWICHINESE,232114]Here's another trip that is happening: Blokarters going global with dash across Gobi The blokarts traversing Mongolia are expected to reach 80km/h or more. Blokarting, a phenomenon that sprang out of Tauranga, is set to leap on to the global stage in a daring series of sprints across the arid landscape of Mongolia. Five Western Bay of Plenty men have teamed up with seven international adventurers to tackle a new frontier in the sport of blokarting. Apart from a tentative test sail into the Gobi Desert last year by Frenchman Christophe Gombert - an experience punctuated with punctures - it is virgin ground for these swift, sturdy and remarkably compact little land yachts designed and manufactured by Paul Beckett of Tauranga. Twelve blokarters will crisscross the same terrain where Genghis Khan gathered his army 800 years ago to create one of the greatest empires the world has known. [/quote]
