Day 8

Still waiting for my day 8 update, I know they have been in some remote areas and not always getting phone coverage. I guess in Chattishgar they hardly had any network coverage, when they crossed over into Orissa immediately had their bars!

I did get a text msg later in the day announcing brighter times, they had run into another team along they way. Think it is good for moral support!

One team, with Simon and John from the UK had run into some maoists, they were being delayed a bit. I hope no news is good news!! and they are moving on.

They had hoped to get into the state north of orissa, jharkhand. They were aiming for the middle route if you look at the two possible routes suggested by the Adventurists. http://rickshawrun09w.theadventurists.com/index.php?mode=route

Also, some teams are sending in updates to the coordinators via SMS, you can check out what they are doing and where they are at the event main page - http://rickshawrun.theadventurists.com/
