Jimny First Gravel Test Drive

This was the first gravel road I took the new Suzuki Jimny on. The total distance on gravel was about 31 km. I planned the trip using Tracks4Africa and exported the track into OsmAnd to do the navigation on the dashboard using Android Auto.

We started the trip with a breakfast at the Wimpy at the Engen Winelands 1 Stop as my bank sponsors a free breakfast every quarter, and why not use that. We also had to do a detour just as we were starting as the first stretch of gravel was being turned into a tar road, and was closed to traffic.

The road was in pretty good shape, apart from one or two muddy patches and some corrugation. It was more an opportunity today to test out 4-wheel drive in high range, and to bed the new suspension in, so that it can be re-torqued tomorrow when the car goes in to have its 2-way radio fitted.
