I did this in India last year and it was utterly amazing, we raced from Chennai to Mumbai, I will be also there again this year.

Any questions, post away, I'll check back and answer if I can.

Yeah... I wouldn't worry too much about the political situation, the things you see on the news are very localised in the north of the Island, a ceasefire was declared a while ago and in any case the rally route is far away from the recently troubled areas. Overall Sri Lanka is a very peaceful country with traditional and very friendly local people.

The undertone of the rally is a charitable cause to help underprivelaged local children, a cause which is well received in every viallage along the route.

I'm a real advocate. Met some real characters last time too...
