Mission Statement

It has long been a dream of ours to cycle from Moron to Moron. Back in 2000, we first noticed that there were two towns in Mongolia, both called Moron (or Mörön, or МӨРӨН).

… Ever since then, a single question has burned in our hearts and minds. How could we not cycle from Moron to Moron? It has to be done, and we are the two morons for the job.

If this is your first time here you should start at Day 0.

NEWSFLASH: Tom Doig and Tama Pugsley are extraordinarily pleased to announce that Allen & Unwin will be publishing Moron to Moron as a full-length travel book, written by Tom, in 2013.

Allen & Unwin is Australia’s leading independent publisher, has been voted “Publisher of the Year” ten times including the inaugural award in 1992 and eight times since 2000, and is generally awesome.
