Good morning @Emanuel! I was expecting my car to be ready by noon today, but apparently they need more time. Seems I won't make it unfortunately:-(

Enjoy the sand!

Thanks for letting me know. Have a great weekend.

POST DRIVE REPORT

Thank you all for being early and ready for the briefing. Starting on time allowed us to get into the desert quickly and make the most of the afternoon.

Everyone drove exceptionally well through both main sections of the drive, including the planned technical patches we had to cross to reach our destination dunes. The drive flowed smoothly, with only a few challenges along the way, most of which were resolved with a second attempt and some guidance on self-recovery techniques. Well done to all of you.

A special thanks to our sweep, @J-P L, who maintained excellent communication throughout the drive, kept us updated from the back, and provided support whenever needed. We also had the pleasure of enjoying a section of the drive led by JP, featuring some great lines, fun side sloping, ridge riding, and a tour of Ishak’s Bowl. Well done, JP.

Thank you as well to @Thomas54675 for as second lead and for helping keep the convoy moving efficiently.

Attached is the Gaia GPS track from yesterday's adventure. We covered an impressive 75 km of varied terrain, creating a route with a pretty impressive elevation profile and plenty of memorable moments along the way. Thanks again for making it such an enjoyable drive. Have a great weekend, and see you in the dunes soon! 🌵🚙💨

Thank you @Emanuel indded the drive had a nice steady pace and great flow thru the dunes. @J-P L good lead with some extra spice 😁 Looking forward to the next one.
