Hi @Gaurav, 

Is the plan to use the same start and end point? 

I have a friend joining me, but he may want to make his own way there. 

Thanks

Ben

Hi @Ben Williams it all depends on the convoy response, terrain, and my mood to end at starting point or head towards the other side of the solar park or qudra lakes.

However, it won't be far from the starting point (max 5-10km away), so you can always drop your friend back at the starting point.

Thanks @Gaurav no problem then. 👍

I have no clue either.

I said what I said as I myself doing Solar Park after a long gap of 6 months, so I genuinely don't know the latest terrain. Based on grassland or pristine sand, which sets my mood will see how it goes.
