Ruta del Sol (motor race)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ruta del Sol (English: Route of the Sun) is an amateur motor race for charity using a VW Beetle to race from Quito, Ecuador to Rio, Brazil.
The Ruta Del Sol takes place in February each year for about three weeks into the wilds of Latin America through thousands of miles of hardcore jungles and rainforest, the Andes, awful roads, complete absence of roads and tropical weather. Each team taking part has to provide their own VW Beetle and to raise a minimum amount for charity.
Fundecruz has been named as an official charity of the February 2008 Ruta del Sol[1][2].
