Few days of very little sleep and long hours driving in the worst possible weather conditions (ranging from 43 degrees with no clouds to unseasonal thunderstorms) brought team Trukke Trukke to Vishakhapatnam, a 1,3 mln people coastal city in Andhra Pradesh. Mechanical problems appear to be a constant of this trip and between Thursday and Friday we spent a good 4 hours dealing with mechanics, random people who we thought (hoped...) were mechanics and people who did understand how an engine works less than we do but that we anyway "forced" to have look at our rickshaw.
The result is that every morning we start the day with no idea on where we will sleep at night and (more importantly) on whether we will be able to reach Shillong on Saturday 30th April. So far we have drove roughly 1,500Km but there are still more than 1,900 to go and from now on the road will not be as good as the one we drove on so far.
Driving at night is not really an option as last time we tried we suddenly saw a number of lights pointing in our direction and realized that we were driving on the wrong side of the highway...
