Day 2: Jodhpur-Gajner


For Martyn and Jenny this was the start of the rally. Everything was going fine until part way along the route when their enigine cut out. This occurred a few times but was sorted out. The then brakes lock and the car needs a whole new whhel bearing, which could have taken a few hours to fix it took all day. This happened as our Jeep suffered a nasty puncture only 1km behind. After along day in the jeep and several near misses with cows later we arrived at Gajner Palace Hotel to meet all the other participants at a meal in the desert. Finally Jenny and Martyn arrive a 430 am after being on the road for nearly 21 hours!
This day also accruded the highest number of roadkill. Currently stading at: 4 birds, a donkey, and an antelope
