Dear all ( so far) : @Mahmut @J-P L @Alphin Aloor @Anoop Nair @Michael asir @Pramod B @Jeandre Bezuidenhout thank you for showing interest for this drive. Just to re-iterate, and let you know the plan for this drive : Starting the day with a 6 am assembly at the meeting point and then heading towards Pink Rock, aiming to arrive around 7 am. The dedicated break from 7-8 am provides an opportunity to tidy up the area, clearing the mess left behind by irresponsible desert visitors and also we will have some hot coffee at this time. so as much as possible we will clear the mess up and then head towards our aimed exit at Big Red , by or before 10am. Looking forward to seeing you all later this week ! P.S : Coffee/ cookies are on me - As I celebrate my 150th Drive

Congrats @Arvindraj! More learnings your way:) Enjoy!

Congrats @Tharun Kumar V! Well done and Enjoy the pace💥!

DRIVE DESCRIPTION PLEASE NOTE : This is not the routine desert drive ! While doing a FB drive last week on a Saturday morning , we noticed HUGE AMOUNT OF TRASH, Close to Pink rock and hence I, along with other participants had a similar thought- why not have a drive to clean up this trash ! So here we go - Sooner the better. - Hopefully we will continue this every now and then at regular intervals given the Camping season on its way. A drive with a mission to put some efforts to restore the beauty of our deserts ! The goal would be to clean up and revitalize desert landscapes - to the extent we can ! let's work hand in hand to clear up the litter, plastic waste, and other trash and preserving the natural splendor of these unique environments. Together, we can make a positive impact on the delicate desert ecosystem. Be a part of this transformative initiative and experience the gratification of preserving our precious deserts. Together, we can make a difference! 🌵🌟 - (Please Feel free to have family , friends join for this ( however only as co-passengers) - We will certainly have limited amount of desert drive post the clean up- We request every member that joins this drive to go through the below information and strictly follow these guidelines, etiquettes and responsibilities.
