In two days I’ll be arriving in India to begin final preparations for the Rickshaw Run, which begins April 6th. One of the unique things my team and I have decided to do with this project is to strap four GoPros on our rickshaw and record every teeth-rattling nail-biting “oh crap I think I just peed my pants” moment.
Live Streaming Videos
We will be posting short clips of this footage on YouTube daily starting April 6th, as well periodically live streaming from the rickshaw using a new app called Meerkat.
Live streaming times will be posted on our Rickshaw Run page
Daily Rickshaw Recap Show
Every night once we’ve parked our rickshaw we’ll also be shooting a 10-15 minute Romanchak Rickshaw Recap. It will feature the three of us talking about our progress that day, where we are now, and anything crazy or interesting that happened — as well as video clips from that days journey.
Posted daily at 1700 UTC — more info on our Rickshaw Run page
Twitter Chats
Although we will all be tweeting all day from the road — yes, even the driver — we also will be online after posting the recap video to answer any questions or share more stories. Follow along using our team hashtag #TeenRomanchakYaar
Much thanks to Ross at Travelling For Fun for the photo 🙂
And Everything Else
Of course we will also be uploading photos to Instagram, posting short live clips to Vine, providing daily updates on Facebook, and yes, even posting to Google+ as well. No matter what social media site you prefer, we will be there.
Looking forward to following along. I’m sure you and Ryan will have some crazy adventures on the road.
72 Hours until we cheers some beers in Delhi dude. Can’t wait to arrive already!
Beer? I like beer! Haven’t had any in forever too. That six-week housesit in the middle of nowhere in Malaysia was rough. But ohhh so nice too, got a lot of work done. Anyway, see ya soon buddy!
I’m sure we will too — just like I’m sure you’ll be living vicariously through others for the next several years 😉 So we’ll make sure to do it right and honor your can-do and will-do spirit along the journey.
How cool and active Team we are I must say 🙂 Love you guys ! Yes I m exicted to start this trip on the top of my eye.And show you India in most crazy way possible 🙂
Love ya too Rutavi, that’s why we invited you to join us 🙂 And that’s good, because crazy is my middle name. You know in Indonesia they call me “bule tergila” which translates as “the craziest white guy” hahaha 😛
