It's all getting a bit too exciting here.

Mr Tim of the Department of HQ is on the verge of having a wee accident and there's much loosening of bowties as we approach a summer of magnificent, unadulterated chaos-mongering.

This summer, our exceptionally foolhardy teams will be thundering forth on 2, 3, and 4 wheels. These brave souls will take 49cc bikes across the Mongolian Steppe on the Monkey Run Mongolia, wobble courageously in underpowered rickshaws into the high Himalayas on the Rickshaw Run Himalaya and attempt to coax entirely unsuitable 1 litre cars to the deserts of Central Asia as they take on the mighty Mongol Rally.

Here's some pictures of why you should be just as excited as Mr. Tim.

If they make you want to instantly quit your job and find an adventure instead, then we're here to help ruin your life a bit. You can find us at theadventurists.com or via those links of destiny in our bio.

It's sometimes hard to convey the Rickshaw Run All India so here's a digital slap around the chops utilising a photodump set to a "trending beat."

If it feels too fast and in-your-face, leaving you feeling like your eyes hurt, or you can't work out what just happened, that's the point. You will feel similar when partaking in the Rickshaw Run.

Your next chance is this September.

The link, as it always is, is in our bio...

Partaking in the Rickshaw Run All India, means reflecting heavily on your relationship with cows.

Do not sign up thinking maybe you are the boss of cows. It's just not that way round.

However you achieve this realisation - meditation in a field of cows, a study of cow behaviour, staring into the eyes of a cow - if you one day intend to do the Rickshaw Run, make sure you achieve it.

As a start, here are some pictures of rickshaws and cows. Note that these cows have a mean bombastic side eye, are allowed to eat any part of your rickshaw, enjoy an under-chin tickle at their leisure, will not take any of your walking-in-their-road s**t and will absolutely judge you on your rickshaw repairs. Team SukySuky TukyTuky approached this by disguising their rickshaw as a cow. We don't know if this was out of solidarity or fear and we're pretty sure the cows knew they weren't a real cow. But we kept that to ourselves.

Apart from the above, if you want to sign up to the Rickshaw Run All India, you'll need to visit our world-wide website using the link in the bio. There are spots available this September if 2026 is your year of cow-conscious adventuring.



P.S Cows actually are sacred in the religious tenants of Hinduism, so really do not diss them.

We've been so busy sending people into somewhere on 2 undersized wheels of late, that we have under-represented the importance of adventuring on 3 undersized wheels.

Here are some pictures to explain why such escapades should not be neglected. You will, as you swipe, note the exquisite splendour of the 3-wheeled adventure machine - the auto-rickshaw - and its maniacal cousin the electro-wallah.

Rickshaws of any manifestation are indeed excellent at helping with your superhero status, breaking down in rather handsome places, electro-wobbling into the jungle, surveilling the galaxy, swimming, questionable camouflage, needless quarry exploration, traditional forms of river transport, escorting you to high altitude and getting irrevocably stuck in sand.

We currently adventure forth on 3 wheels across India, into the Himalayas and around Sri Lanka, but we would encourage you to get yourself into any 3-wheeled conundrum you can muster, just to make sure you understand its importance.

Our next such foray will be into the Himalayas this July, should you wish to join the fray. Link in bio.

Many thanks to the 3-wheel adventuring teams of old for capturing such splendour.

A few days ago, the Monkey Run Morocco came to an end. Now, somewhere in the Agafay desert, lies 48 monkey bikes in somewhat working condition accompanied by their riders filled to the brim with pride.

Knowing that they just conquered the Atlas and Sahara they returned to reality sandy and filled with tales to tell for years to come.

Perhaps they’ll sign up for another adventure? Maybe they’ve inspired you to join in on the next one…click the link in our bio to check out what’s on offer.

Water crossings seemed to be the flavour of the day yesterday. With the conventional approach being to ride through the puddle…Mr Cooper took a different approach (demonstrated on picture 2), lifted his monkey and carried it to safety… we still can’t decide if this was a good idea?

However, Erica has taken the cake for the Photo of the day win. The appropriate amount of bravos have been distributed.

They finish in the coming days, but if you fancy an adventure check out our link in the bio to sign up.

Seems like these folks have gotten so lost they’ve started asking the camels for directions. Another congrats to Fanni for capturing this moment on camera.

We are also giving a win to Hannah for capturing this chap contemplate all life decisions that led him to that moment. Excellent stuff.

Another day on the road means more photos of adventuring chaos to bestow upon your eyeballs. Today in the form of “Monkey Surfing”, windy roads, cool poses and needing a little push to get going. Cameron Kunkle has taken the win today for capturing this new surfing sport on camera.

With Day One complete our Monkeys are doing well at pretending they’re built for this and quickly learning that “roads” are a very loose concept in Morocco.

Our first Photo Of The Day win goes to Fanni for this beautiful demonstration of teamwork and questionable life choices.

If you’re wanting some sand in your life, October is nearly full but our 2027 runs have plenty of space waiting for you. Head to the link in our bio to find out more.
