I love technical drives and enjoyed every second of today's drive. I have no complaints about the terrain as such, and frankly all the vegetation added a lot more to the character of the drive and it was lot more engrossing because of it. As @Shaaz Sha pointed out in the outset it was an exploratory drive and loved every second of it and it was completely a new route that I had never driven before. We had a great start and finished on the clock, with minor refusals and easy recoveries. Everyone drove exceedingly well I thought, and see you all in the desert soon.
A big thanks to @Shaaz Sha for a great drive today. Also appreciate the support from @Pacific & @Gaurav Soni. Thanks to @Matt.T for your excellent 2nd Lead.
