Today brought us to our final few kilometres in Peru as the border to Chile, our penultimate country, earnestly beckoned! The day was made more exciting by the return of Sebastian Moreno; our friend who had joined us between Pasto and Quito, and who had now got himself sponsorship to join the team all the ...

Another 7am start beckoned before a cloudless drive across the desert. We all met up to pack the van at the aforementioned time, and after following up with a quick breakfast and essential cup of coffee, the convoy left the hotel and rejoined the Pan-American Highway mere metres from the hotel's entrance. Today was set to ...

An exciting coastal drive of 240 miles awaited us today, and after the later than usual start, we were packed, breakfasted, and back on the road by 9.45am. Unlike many of the other small towns we have stayed in on our journey through Peru, this was actually a place you wouldn't mind spending a few ...

Over the last few months on this trip, we have woken up in a lot of different places, from a car park in Seattle to a power station in Honduras! Today represented an entirely novel location; an oasis! We couldn't see it the night before as we arrived when it was dark, but waking up ...

Lima to Ica Despite the relatively short drive we had planned today, only around 300km, we had a lot to fit in what with a visit to the University of Lima and a trip to Salvador and Fernando's race track. So, after our alarms ringing at the hideous time of 6.30am, we arrived at the university ...

As we had arrived in Lima a day earlier than expected, we had one day free before the press event on Wednesday which therefore allowed us a slightly more relaxed Tuesday than normal! However, there are always things which need to be done and so we did not attempt to have a sleep in or ...

Today we had the ambitious plan of leaving the hotel (which as you may recall was not actually a hotel!) at 8am, giving a presentation at the university at 8.30am, and leaving bang on 9 o'clock. Normally everything takes so much longer than expected as there are 9 people to be in the right place ...

A long stretch of around 230 miles awaited us today as the drive to Chimbote, Peru's centre of the seafood industry, beckoned. By 8.30am we were back at the university to pick up the now fully charged SRZero and to mix with a large crowd of people that had come to see the car off. ...

Today was a day which we were all looking forward to considerably. We had something on the agenda which was completely different to what we had done at any point on the trip so far, so we woke up in Troy's apartment looking forward to the day's events. Firstly though we had to eat, so we ...

Finally, and I mean this in the best possible way, today was the day we were able to drive into our 12th country; Peru. We had fantastic experiences in Ecuador with the most astounding generosity displayed towards the team, but between the shipping, fire and crash we had been delayed enough and we really wanted ...
