Meeting Point: Dropped pin

Action Plan: On account of the long waiting list for the drive scheduled this coming Saturday, it has been decided to post a new drive, like a preview, to take place in midweek, and open it up to the waitlisted members, who may not actually make the convoy on Saturday. Same drive, same spirit, less crowded, and more exploratory. 

Type of Car: Any proper 4x4 with front and back tow hooks and 8-10 inches of ground clearance.

What to bring along: Loads of water, snacks (for yourself), smiles, face mask, rubber gloves, enthusiasm and willingness to learn.

Approximate finish time: 6:30 PM

P.S. Only join if you have a compressor to inflate your tires after the drive.

Yes, we all made it!! @Ale Vallecchi

And Thanks for opening up this otherwise "advisor exclusive" recce drive for normal people   ...i was just a silent observer to the whole drive as you kept sharing snippets for  @varunmehndiratta 's lead coming saturday, which gave me a different perspective of how you guys do the route planning, exit points, choice of different routes based on convoy response etc.

It was indeed a welcome re-start for me after almost a month's break , a chill and relaxing fewbie track , a very short convoy - 4 cars to start with and later 3 cars when @GauravSoni had to exit due to a work site call - hope all is ok.

 

All the best to both @varunmehndiratta for his partial lead on Saturday and @GauravSoni for his first independent lead...Go rock the sands!!

See you all soon !!
