My story , arrived late at the meeting point since i was getting the Jeep washed . Meeting point was a good 25km from home and i see a lot of regular faces and Dwarak at an all time high since he was busy doing the registrations etc. The camp was around an hours drive from the meeting point . The tent was huge, like some big marriage was going on . It was dark in the parking area hence could not see all the vehicles . Went to the tent and reserved my bed and went out to have dinner . Morning it was eventually and the first thing is toilet, they were very very clean and proper western . Breakfast was pongal and it was i think one of the best i had in Bangalore . The line up had started and i was all charged up , rolled the wind screen down and hit the ww2 siren . We did trail 2 first and it had some good rocky declines and inclines , our marshals were Vijay and shanawaz with their spotting skills next to none . Finished trail 2 by lunch time (lunch was packed veg biryani , it was very nice ) . Weather was a bit hot but nothing bad . The best part now was the trail 3 . This is one of a kind trail , i have done aavalakonda twice , but here every foot of the ground was an obstacle. Narrow , bushy , proper wheel placement , judging the terrain, concentration and crawling were the key. Lot of new guys had it here , broken leaf springs, ripped side walls , fenders and what not . I was a little worried how the CJ3B would perform, but it was meticulous , every obstacle and turn in one shot . The organizers were right , this was a pucca CJ3b trail . Some new guys had some issues which the whole convoy was ready to help . It was around 6 PM by the time we got out . Tea was served hot , followed by party time and dinner, not to forget the stuff i was waiting for, Barbeque and Kebabs, ate a lot and slept at 3.AM. Next day was trail 4 for us , failed in the first climb cause i was doing it for the gallery (show off) . Did a small rock face for the villagers and went home fully charged up . Jeep had no issues , guess its reliable .
Meet all the lions, tigers, bears , low bonnets , high bonnets, 540s, 550s , handmade , peugos , inters, Di s petrols , the whole Jurassic park was there.
You have to see the organizing and turnout to believe it , tent, food, toilets were superb , trail making by M.p sreenivasan was un believable , every stone and tree was marked, one could actually do the trail alone .
Serious trail only enjoyed by the Guys with experience and not for newbies . It feels ashamed to put so much responsibility on those few guys and we just enjoying, next year i will do the hard work my self .
I would personally like to thank
M.p .Sreenivasan sir , only you can do what you do
UBS, JEEP Legend , he likes my Jeep and it means a lot to both of us .
