Reg and Jim’s Extraordinary Taxi Ride Begins!

Tomorrow Kiwi mates, Reg and Jim, winners of The Extraordinary Taxi Ride Promotion, will be hailing a cab to cross a thousand kilometres of Western Australia.

The Extraordinary Taxi Ride Worldwide Promotion involves a 10,000 kilometre taxi ride across Western Australia – with seven sets of international passengers from New Zealand, WA, Singapore, Malaysia, New South Wales, Victoria and Germany travelling on different legs through the State’s extraordinary experiences. The Extraordinary Taxi Ride can be followed at http://www.extraordinarytaxiride.com and the NZ site: http://www.extraordinarytaxiride.co.nz/

Reg is a Property Manager in Wellington and his mate Jim is a custom shoemaker, who created shoes for Lord of the Rings and has since continued a tidy trade in making shoes for a number of celebrities.

When Jim is not crafting new soles, he’s searching for interesting souls – satisfying his wanderlust with world travel and reporting on all of his adventures in his blog: http://holesinmysoles.blogspot.com/

Reg and Jim will be hailing their cab on the 01st of June and heading to The Gibb River Road for nine days, starting with an iconic 4WD adventure across the Kimberley – one of the world’s last true wilderness areas.

Reg and Jim will then ditch the 4WD to return to their trusty taxi but not for long because the next stop will be cattle mustering and then barramundi fishing. After all of that the boys will have earned a well-deserved rest under waterfalls and in hot thermal springs. Highlights include staying at El Questro Wilderness Park and Home Valley Station.

Best of luck Reg and Jim!
