55 Jeepers from Banglaore Jeep Club went for a Valentines’s Day trip, this was no doubt one of the largest number of Jeeps in a single event, the planning required at least 4 recces of the place, markings on the ground so that Jeeps do not take much time while forming a Big Heart on the ground with their Jeeps. A number of Red Jeeps were specifically called in for creating the Big Heart Formation in Red on the ground.

As expected, planning was meticulous and it was a spactacular show while Jeeps formed a Big Heart with Red Jeeps and a Big BJC letters on the ground.

Jeepers enjoyed off-roading in the nearby Jungle and the slush of lake bed.

Jeepers started from a Meeting point after Airport Toll towards a location 30 kms from there. Most of the Jeepers arrived on time.

Bangalore Jeep Club’s Lake Trails 2.0 – Jul 2nd, 2022

This was a repeat trail to the BJC Lake upon demand from fellow Jeepers and yet another breakfast on the rocks experience for everyone. All Jeepers reported on time at our BJC start point near Hosakote and the convoy was flagged off a few minutes late. The convoy drove through country roads with lush greenery and awesome pre-monsoon weather for a very comfortable drive.

The convoy drove through the multiple town limits in batches without affecting the normal traffic and prepaid passing through the tolls without any delays. It was a bliss and out of the world experience for all newcomers from the club to join such an unstoppable convoy drive with perfect co-ordination.

We reached the breakfast point on time and wow what a colorful Jeeps show it was, the drones captured this spectacular view of Jeeps parked to perfection. Everyone grabbed their packed full course breakfast and relished the days first meal on the rocks.

After the breakfast we headed to our destination the BJC Lake maneuvering through slush, mild rocks and sneaky gravels. The drive to the lake itself was a good off-roading experience for many and added to it was an additional short off-road natural track near the lake.

This was a picturesque lake view with a dam short away and wondering why this is called BJC lake!!
Well, it was the BJC who partially adopted this lake a year ago for its development and to maintain cleanliness surrounding the lake. Almost six to seven visits were made to this lake by admins and other recce teams to execute the plan for development with support from locals. There are a few trees planted by BJC on this lakebed.

The trail ended with a good note by one of our distinguished Jeeper about traffic awareness and everyone dispersed by 12pm.

Bangalore Jeep Club’s Independence Day Trails – Aug, 15th – 2022

To mark the 75th Independence Day, we had much more than 75 Jeeps joining from all across Bangalore and also from neighboring states. Everyone reported to the start point much before the scheduled flag off and the convoy started off in multiple batches winding through scenic mountains and country roads.

It was a great show of Jeepocracy and Patriotism on today’s convoy drive for our celebrations in an estate. This great show of 75 plus Jeeps marching together wouldn’t have been possible with utter coordination and mutual understanding. A great thanks to the core team for such an unimaginable drive through the scenic route passing through reserved forests also.

The meet was prearranged at an estate within a hours drive from the start point, it all started with a wonderful parking of our Jeeps to mark the 75th Independence Day. The Jeeps were directly and swiftly guided by the recce team to its assigned position for a quick formation as desired.

The flag hoisting was arranged in a big way near the parked Jeeps and everyone showed their due respect to the nation by singing the national anthem in presence of BJC Jeepers from various defense forces. Everyone enjoyed the local breakfast served by the pool at the estate and later headed to a most beautiful river bank attached to the estate. Whereas some of them headed to a short off-roading inside the estate.

We all assembled back for our lunch and also to collect some goodies by Jeep India and BJC. Citing to so many activities most of them dispersed post lunch to head back to city, while some of them relaxed in the estate chatting and sharing their Jeep experiences. There ends yet another successful BJC trails with a huge number of Jeeps.

BJC Monsoon Plantation Trail

Bangalore Jeep Club

Bangalore Jeep Club's Monsoon Plantation Trail to Sakleshpur - Jun 19th, 2022

A drive compassed collaboratively by Jeepers of Bangalore Jeep Club and Jeep India at the lush and green Sakleshpur. The onset of monsoon and the winds of change had set a great stage for yet another initiative of ‘Mission One Earth’.

The trail from 17th June 2022 to 19th June 2022 was accomplished with a CSR to plant more trees and upkeep the nature’s tranquility. The 2 nights event with 22 Jeeps and 44 members including the support of venue courtesy from Machaan Plantation Resorts, had a CSR to plant 22 trees in the foothills of western ghats.

Our Jeepers covered a total distance of around 600kms including 18kms of constricted off-road experience inside the plantation travelable tracks. The convoy, flagged off from Hotel Dhruvathare on Bangalore-Hassan NH75, passed through the highways and country roads to reach the first stopover at Shettihalli Church. A picturesque place known for the ruins of an ancient church which submerges under water during monsoon.

Then the convoy drove through countryside which Jeepers love to, rather than taking the highways to reach the resort.  Everyone was welcomed by the resort management team with lot of surprises curated for the BJC. The entire resort was prepped up for the BJC Jeep Trails. The evening was well spent by the pool side with a cocktail barbecue and for the first time our Jeepers from BJC introduced distinct Jeep themed cocktails.

The day two started off with a sumptuous traditional breakfast and a drive for first off-road drive experience. The drive was led by Jeep Meridian passing through deserted plantations with steep inclinations. While a few struggled others took it cool uphill. The Jeepers also gave away few sweets and couple of sports goods to the children of plantation workers.

The quick break for lunch was back at resort with lip smacking local cuisine and some delicious deserts to continue our drive. The second part of the drive was to a hilltop with breathtaking views. The path was extremely narrow and return from hilltop was a steep incline. In the third part the drive was into a different plantation maneuvering the twisted paths and crossing the stream with an out of the world experience drive girdled with green plants and trees.

The high tea was hosted in an ethereal estate by a small water stream to conclude the drive experience. New Jeepers were talking about their vehicle’s capability and were astonished by the performance that was delivered by the machine in such tough terrains. The drive back to resort was through pitch dark wilderness roads and all Jeeps’ lights were shining upon the greenery around. The day ended with a gala dinner by few more trail theme-based cocktails served on the house.

On day three the Mission One Earth Trails concluded after the Jeepers planted the saplings in resort vicinity to add more greenery and surge oxygen levels for coming years. Jeepers headed back to their homes with lot of memories and goodies to cherish the moments spent during the Trails.

Happy Jeeping!
