  (8/26/96) The Land Rover Discovery is the official support vehicle of Eco-Challenge '96. This XD model is specially equipped for off-road adventure.

This is at Transition Area #2 where competitors check in after a 2-3 day mountain trek, and repack gear for the next leg: a fifty mile canoe and 72 mile mountain bike.

 

Leading after two days, Team Eco-Internet/Reebok begin the canoeing leg of the grueling nine-day adventure race. They are just one-hour ahead of second place team Hewlett Packard. At this point, Team Land Rover is in 29th place; a very respectable status in this event where just finishing is an accomplishment to be proud of.
