Bill & Danny's "Great Adventure" begins September 10th!
Two of the most "adventurous" Pegasus Pals, Bill Shields & Danny Day, are out to have some fun and support the Pegasus Project in a VERY BIG Way!
This September, Bill & Danny will be driving a restored and modified 1939 Dodge Coupe in the "Peking to Paris" road rally. The trip will take them (along with 100+ other racers) through China, Mongolia, Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkministan, Iran, Turkey, Greece, Italy, and finally to the finish in Paris, France.
