Р?AMEL TROPHY: THE CAMEL STUDIES TO FLOAT.
п AMEL TROPHY: THE CAMEL STUDIES TO FLOAT.
All new bears in itself a sad note. What a pity... It is a pity, that
More there is legendary "Lend no Rovers", an impassable dirt,
Exhausting "clearings" from a road captivity of the yellow
kemeltroficheskih off-road cars. All became in another way. Better or
Worse - to solve to you, curious readers. To begin with all "pluses" and
The journalist should understand "minuses" of new concept Camel Trophy.
Here also have collected hard workers of a feather in Lazarevsky area Sochi on
The journalist. Here also have collected hard workers of a feather in Lazarevsky area Sochi
On the Russian national selection in travel Camel Trophy-2000.
To all who never was on Black sea in February, I will tell, that
Prompt change of weather amazes. Spring, summer, winter
Have flown before us for three days, as if on someone's command
Or hoteniju.
Day of 1st. Spring. Having woken up from a vigorous rhythm of a rain, I understand,
That to candidates for the Russian command, and them 32 persons were going to,
It will be hard. Run and driving on a mountain bicycle on the crossed
The district reminding a huge pool, is, I to you will tell, not
Walks on the Sochi quay. To be engaged in the description of all
"Spring" peripetias of candidates for the command of Russia Camel
Trophy-2000 And to tell about all of them tortures - business
The ungrateful. I will notice only, that at air temperature +3п?п and
Incessant torrential rain children had to knit rafts,
Knee-deep uvjazaja in a dirt. On rafts and surfs of the command of candidates
Overcame mountain lake to set up flag Camel Trophy on
Opposite coast. It was cheerful, a lot of dirt, waters and
Cold rain.
Start of travel Camel Trophy Tonga-Fiji ' 2000 will occur 29
June on island Vavau in kingdom Tonga (Ocenia, absolutely
Near to Australia, in Pacific ocean). Commands from 16 countries for 22
Day will overcome 1850 kilometres of "a sea track" and will finish the
Travel on island Malolo Lajlaj in republic Fidji.
Moving on "legend", commands will visit seven groups of islands
Ocenia, in passing carrying out of special tasks for the mountain
Bicycles, sailing boards, being engaged in rock-climbing and
Immersing on a bottom of Pacific ocean with aqualungs. Each command
Moves independently by two boats Ribtec.
Day of 2nd. Spring. The sun in a window, simply is not believed. In the sky
Cloudlet. All tasks of today are transferred on coast
Black sea. Warm, but sea water nearby +4п?п . Br-r... It would be desirable
To touch water though at excitement 4п п п п п to make the given
Action is inconvenient enough. All "taski" is maximum
Are approached to "fighting".
Rock-climbing, or as speak in Camel Trophy, "cords", yes
Over the sea, - a show grasping spirit. Especially for candidates in
The command. A negative ascension, a vertical cord and to that
Similar from forces, but all candidates thoroughly beat out, switching on
Five girls, keep with firmness. Camel Trophy - travel, instead of
Sports meet for this reason one of "taskov" was called
"Robinzon Crusoe". The most vital competition. Ashore
"Ship-wreck fragments" are scattered: logs, pieces of a canvas,
Boat, boxes and other sea dust, including the rests
Equipments. Participants as soon as possible should construct a refuge,
To weld porridge and to prepare tea, then, having been going to in shelter,
To arrange a dinner with the songs lifting command spirit. To observe for
The city dwellers building a refuge from a sea wind, employment
The fascinating. It is faster exercise on sharpness, than on
Physical endurance. In each of us all the same were saved
The rests of cave inhabitants, therefore all have consulted on the firm
"Four".
New concept Camel Trophy in brief looks so.
Camel Trophy became more travel, instead of sports
Competition. All special tasks are resolved from 9 o'clock till 16 o'clock. In
Remained time - survey of local exotic. I dare to assure you, on
Islands of its Ocenia enough. Off-road cars have left in a non-existence
Land Rover. Travellers have changed on boats Ribtec. This
Sea "off-road car" is equipped by the 350-strong motor of firm Honda.
Stock of a course of a boat - 250 n miles. Crew - 4 persons.
Calculation of a route and the expense of fuel is much more important than speed
Movings on bicycles. If earlier basis Camel Trophy was
The slogan "Overcome itself" now - "Calculate the forces".
Day of 3rd. Winter. Sleet flakes have brought our hotel.
The detective "Hotel" At the lost climber ", especially is recollected
That roads are blocked, and in area Hosts has descended sel. We are adjusted
On short wintering, and the cores "taski" are transferred in
Pool of hotel with sea water. Underwater orientation,
Immersings with an aqualung, swimming on "survival" in clothes and
Diving with a mask and a tube. One of "taskov" reminds the piracy
Execution of times of captain Blada. A narrow board in width of 15 centimetres and
In the length of metres seven.
It is necessary to drive on it on mountain bicycle Scott to
The end. Only the few have reached the ending, though the award
To everyone there was an immersing in pool without an aqualung, but with
Bicycle.
Waters have sufficed everything, even to journalists with whom have arranged a heat
For a while with cocktail banks in hands. For me who have grown on
To Volga, water - the native elements calling only feeling of pleasure.
However, the same sensation was at all candidates for the command.
The primary goal of the Russian national selection in travel
Camel Trophy Tonga-Fiji ' 2000 - as much as possible to approach candidates
To conditions of real travel. Rest - an important part
Travel. Entertaining programs passed every evening,
Replacing the future survey of sights Oceanic
Islands. Groups "п п п©я п " and "S.P.O.R.T." From Peter, displays
Collections kemeltroficheskoj clothes for travellers - all it
Merged in a bright mosaic of impressions.
At last declared results. 10 persons, which are selected
Will struggle in Southern Africa, in bay Sodvana, for a place in
kemeltroficheskoj to boat Ribtec and for pleasure poistjazat itself and
The character on islands of Ocenia. And all to you, cheloveche, is not enough.
It is not enough adventures, it is not enough self-torture. Though subsequently comes
Sensation of self-satisfaction. Know, how at climbers: I it
Smog, I have subdued this top! In Camel Trophy-2000, the truth, will be
Expression "I is more pertinent has subdued this depth". Camel Trophy became
Another, tasks have changed, there "have left" off-road cars, and the concept
There was another, but one is invariable only - that never can
To disappear, - draught of people for adventures. "A life one - live it
Brightly! ".
