“Vimal, only a few seats are available, and I am going ahead and blocking two” I remember my wife saying something on these lines.
-
Before I could even respond, she had confirmed over a text message to Nidhi of Wander Beyond Boundaries, a Noida-based extreme overland expedition organiser.
My wife, Dr Vani Parmar (a cancer surgeon and off-road competitor) and I are not new to overland drives, having done 5 to 6 so far. But this one was quite extreme in terms of the terrain. Around 2,000 km, over two weeks, in nine 4x4 Mahindra Scorpios and two 4x4 Mahindra Thars (This was a Mahindra Adventure powered expedition) with 19 participants, 2 dogs, 2 photographers, one journalist, two mechanics and two expedition leaders. From 15 to 26 Jan 2021.
