Pimp my Rickshaw and the art of distance pimping
One of our tasks prior to departure is to “Pimp Our Rickshaw” – this is described on the Rickshaw Run website:
“The art of distance-pimping is a bit like distance-learning but without any learning. It involves paint a willing Indian artistic genius, dodgy sketches and a certain amount of enlightenment. By combining the awesome powers of electricity and paint we have created the secretive “Pimp My Rickshaw” section of our website where you can upload your fantasy paint jobs onto the website and try them out on a 3d rickshaw. Then just press go and by the power of magic it all becomes real on your very own rickshaw, albeit a touch wobbly and hand painted.”
We can also include space for sponsorship on our Rickshaw – so if you would like to get you company name or similar on our Rickshaw please contact us.
I and my sister made a fabulous trip to India the previous year or so, all things was in fact incredibly nice on that point there. My family and i traveled a lot somewhere around and also went to a small number of Wildparks. Both of us spotted numerous Indian tigers, small elephants and even numerous different attractive wildlife on that point. Finally , the natura and location all over Southindia is truly lovely but also totally totally different. Inside a handful of zones it truly is fully green-colored because of a wide selection of plant, found in some other areas at that place are typically dessert regions. On the mountains you can view quite a few quite not often and good-looking flowers and as well trees. We as well enjoyed a handful of good weeks in Goa on our shore, the cold water most likely was really clean and most of the men truly helpful.
My husband and two kids spent 6 mths in India and we used these auto rickshaws all the time – our whole family would travel to the market (tight squeeze) but a great,cheap and interesting way to travel. We also visited Jaisalmer which is a beautiful fort city near the boarder. I will be watching with great interest as the distance to cover is quite large but the journey will be slow due to the road conditions, tractors, camel, elephants etc that use the main roads as well as the bicycles, motorbikes and cars.I am very jealous. Good Luck guys and safe travels.
