Made for finding your rhythm and building confidence behind the wheel. It should be a fun, scenic Fewbie-friendly drive, aiming to be aired-up and home before the heat bites.

I love this graphic. AI still does not get the JL right, when asked for Jeep they portray JKs more often than not.

Thanks everyone, I really enjoyed today! 

It was quite a simple drive plan today, but we got our fill of climbs, bowls, loops, technical, ridges and switches. 

Special thanks to @J-P L and @Deepak Eswar for the support and @khurramm in 2nd lead. 

The big trucks of @Khalid Sharaf and @Jerome gave a good soundtrack to the drive especially while dominating Iftar Bowl.

@Ana and @Shary drove briliantly especially during the deep bowl recovery. 

The route today

We also completed the 3rd volume in the short sharp series completing the middle portion of the route.
