I push the dense, dripping foliage away and try to free my feet from
the clinging, clay-rich mud. This is an extreme environment. The
undergrowth is full of things that prick, sting, bite and suck. In
all it's brutal beauty this is a place David Attenbourough would love
as he searched for a wild and untamed beast known to science as
nullus-via ... <a class="more" href="http://www.motorsport.com/offroad/news/offroad-2011-malaysian-rainforest-challenge-hell-and-high-water/">Keep reading</a>]]></description>

chest and in the infrequent drafts of not so hot air I can feel that
the back of my shirt is drenched. This is Malaysia in the middle of
the monsoon ... <a class="more" href="http://www.motorsport.com/offroad/news/offroad-wet-and-wild-at-the-rainforest-challenge/">Keep reading</a>]]></description>
