PANIC. THAT’S WHAT WAS RUNNING through my mind as I dashed out of Ahmedabad airport, having landed an hour later than scheduled. I snatched the keys to my chariot, a diesel Jeep Compass. The convoy hadn't waited for me and I had ground to cover. I put on some sweet AC/DC tunes and hit the road, hard. But I might have jumped too far here, let me give you some context.
I was racing to attend the Jeep Trails, an event for Jeep customers to experience what the Jeep life is all about — off-roading, visiting spectacular places and straying off the beaten path. At the same time, it brings like-minded people together who share a passion for adventure, and put them headfirst into one. Oh, and did I mention off-roading? This edition, the White Sands, was being held in the Greater Rann of Kutch, but the drive started in Ahmedabad, some 400km away.
