The tyres that we\u2019re running on our Jimnys now are the same ones that we were running when we left Southampton all that time ago.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe A\/T3s have performed well in excess of what we expected; they\u2019ve covered around 15,000 miles across all terrains in all weather conditions and they look like they\u2019ve barely been touched.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Carvall, who like the rest of his team members, is now in his seventies, admitted he is relieved to be back on well-maintained roads: \u201cWe\u2019re all very pleased to be back driving on decent road surfaces; it means we can cover a lot more mileage and really make up some time. In truth, I just feel very lucky to have been able to take part in this challenge \u2013 the whole journey has been a series of highlights and for a great cause.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Donations, which will be distributed amongst a number of charities, including Save the Children, can be made via the team\u2019s website: www.heavencanwaitimbusy.com.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The \u2018Heaven Can Wait I\u2019m Busy\u2019 crew has begun the fourth and final leg of its round-the-world expedition, dubbed the \u2018Ultimate Challenge\u2019 and the team remains in high spirits as it continues its fundraising journey of a lifetime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[454],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5625","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cooper"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 -
