Don't do that. Fill up at ADNOC Service Station | Al Hayer-2 (659) (can buy coffee here) or better ENOC | 1914 | Nahil (only fuel) and proceed to go to the meeting point as usual. which is shown in the map below in green: Not advisable to do is to go to Nahel Adonc 658 and take a slight detour on the wrong way for about 20ms in the morning - no traffic roads.

A couple of pointers regarding the meeting point: First: You can fill up at Nahel Fuel Station. It is about 100 m ahead of the road that leads to the meeting point; so, you may need to manage to reach to the road. Next; the entrance to the meeting point potentially can be swamped. Avoid the red circled area. You may take the left bank near to the bushes and come in & do not take any other track. There is an automated gate to the entrance. There could be little more water a bit ahead as well but that will not be an issue.

Dear Desert Drivers, Some additional details to Saturday morning. Arriving at the meeting point, you will see a gate. Approach the gate slowly, and it will open by itself. Last week, the right part was blocked half open, but the left part was operating properly. If there is still water remaining before the gate, you can go around driving 50 m more on the road and going around, coming back to the gate along the fence. Be sure your car is in the best condition to drive with the heat, and remove unnecessary items from the back seats and the trunk areas. I will indicate tomorrow by the end of the afternoon the convoy order and the radio frequency. If you have not done it yet, please program in advance the 10 Carnity frequency.

Dear Desertnauts, last minute tips for tomorrow's drive. The meeting will be at Badayer Shops (see newly posted meeting point). Let's try to leave as close to the meeting time as possible (that being 2:30 PM). The cobvoy order will be the following: @Amr A in Second Lead @Nicolò at #3 @Talal H at #4 @Bravoecho in the Center @RiadJL at #6 @lucas amat at #7 @Hani crest king at #8 and @Stumpy in Sweep. First objective is to reach Super Bowl in the shortest possible time, with the most climbs possible while getting there. Then we'll start the exploration of the passage to Faqa, moving through lower and tighter dunes, close to the fenced off protected nature reserve. Finally, if darkness has not fallen yet, we mat proceed to reach Dubai via sand tracks, sabkhas and some low cordons of dunes. Looking forward to a nice start of the weekend.
