Mileage competition

Any person that sponsors us can enter our mileage competition

The idea is to try and guess how many miles we will travel on our journey from London to Ulaan Baatar

As a rough guide we are travelling from London to Newcastle, then across to Bergen in Norway (0 miles counted for that part of journey as we wont be driving it)

Then up to Trondheim on the coast of Norway, then further up into the Arctic circle at Narvik.

Then we are dropping down through Sweden to Finland- Haparanda in Sweden, and Loppeenranta in Finland

Then into Russia and Siberia going through, St Petersburg, Moscow, Kazan, Omsk, Novosibirsk, Tasanta

And into Mongolia at Western tip, going through Northern territories, passing through Tes, Moron and finally into UlaanBaatar

So there you have the rough route, it is meant as an aid to get you close to the final figure without giving you the exact miles

We have left a few cities off the list but none are off the general course, so wont be adding an extreme amount of miles, and if we listed them all you'd all guess around the same figure!!

Have a guess and good luck!!
