The 2CV Alaska Challenge

Newspaper and Television Coverage


The run-up to The 2CV Alaska Challenge, and the main event itself, were covered by more than 60 newspapers, both in the UK and in North America, as well as TV and radio stations. This page contains a small selection from this media coverage.
Central TV News clip, June 13th 1999. (includes Rob being interviewed live to camera and Andre the Canadian mountie; which probably makes it one of the most surreal news clips ever to be broadcast)

Calgary Herald, August 17th 1999.

Exeter Express & Echo, May 24th 1999. (Rob & Jose)

South London Mercury, May 12th 1999. (Rob)

Slough Express, May 6th 1999. (Jose)

Yukon News, August 30th 1999.


There's also a sound file, The Ballad of Andre the Mountie, which was the official song of the Alaska trip.
