Still my Jeep in garage, service not complete, sorry I can't make for tomorrow's drive, 

[Deepak Eswar]

I want to express my sincere apologies for not being able to join the convoy last minute (11^th at 07:00 Tawi - Sharjah ]. Unfortunately, my car broke down at the meeting point.

 

I want to extend a special thanks to Brette, Simon, and RK Ram for their support in getting my car ready for recovery. Their help was greatly appreciated, and I am grateful for their efforts.

 

I regret any inconvenience this last-minute change may have caused the team. Look forward to joining the team for the next week's drive. Once again, I apologize for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding.
