Everything but a winter's stroll -- The 2018 Baltic Sea Rally adventure

For an adventurous "delicacy" we all like to rise early -- and that's exactly what many of the 2018 Baltic Sea Circle participants had to do for this year's winter edition. At the end of February, the 16-day rally from Hamburg to the Estonian capital Tallin started at 11am. To arrive in time, some had to get out of bed at the crack of dawn. This was true for Olaf Ebeling and Berthold Litjes, who started their journey to the Hanseatic city at 6am -- and after their vehicle was literally only ready in the 11th hour. In addition to the fun factor, the Baltic Sea Tour also had a charitable cause -- in fact, two: the event organizer gave a part of the starting fee to charitable organizations while the teams themselves collected donations for associations and organizations of their choice. Olaf Ebeling and Berthold Litjes collected a grand total of 3,000 euros, which went to the Düsseldorfer Kindertafel (children's food bank).

This is what the Baltic Sea Tour participants is all about: ice-cold adventurers -- warm hearts! You can see some tour impressions in this video
