The 7 Adventures – the 7 rules
- Start and/or finish is near one of the New 7 Wonders of the World.
The New 7 Wonders of the World really deserve to be discovered, sadly someone beat you to it! That`s why we let you rediscover these wonders in a different way. Visiting a wonder is so much more meaningful if the road to get there is an adventure in itself.
- You raise money for charity.
If you want to support your charity of choice you are obviously more than welcome to do so. However, if you don`t have a charity on the shelf, The 7 Adventures can provide one for you. Each event The 7 Adventures selects a main beneficiary and you can choose to support them.
- The amount you raise for charity is linked to the size of the engine of your vehicle.
Our `congestion charge scheme`: small car - small amount / fat banger - fat bundle of cash.
Three car categories:
Cookie Tin (up to 1000 cm3): €500 per car
Extremely-normal (1000 - 2000 cm3): €1250 per car
Monster (over 2000 cm3): €2500 per car
Three two wheel categories:
Crazy rider (up to 50 cm3): €250 per bike
Easy rider (50 - 500 cm3): €500 per bike
Lazy rider (over 500 cm3): €750 per bike
These amounts are all minimum amounts, more is of course better.
An adventure can have a different scheme, so read carefully if there are any specific event rules.
- You travel by means way below the accepted standard.
You wanted adventure, right? If you go by car, it should be a minimum of 15 years old. The average lifetime of a car is 14 years, so your vehicle is ready for the scrap heap (or maybe you even picked it up there). For people adventurous enough to go on two wheels we`ll drop the age limit, you`re free to choose.
- The event is no race, it`s about the adventure, the achievement and experience.
There`s no reward for the fastest or first one arriving at the wonder. The trip there should give you a sense of achievement, a memorable feat you couldn`t have pulled off with the support of your team members and the other teams. At the end of the road the greatest prize of all is new friends you`ve made and the adventure you experienced.
- You stick to the local rules and laws.
If you want you can try to argue with the local police chief: "Back home this is allowed!". You`ll probably loose, but hey, can`t blame a guy for trying! Keep in mind you`re travelling countries where police not necessarily has the same standards as back home. So to prevent you from being stuck in prison half your holiday, try to stick to the local rules.
- Every event is `unsupported`, you are responsible for everything you do on the trip.
Our adventures are unsupported, meaning you are responsible for the whole of your trip. The 7 Adventures will help you to prepare to go somewhere, but all you do is your own responsibility. You`ll travel countries that are potentially less developed, have bad roads and a different safety situation. So you have to prepare for calamities. The 7 Adventures can`t take any responsibility for any of that, and you shouldn`t come complain if you accidently die.
