Thank you, everyone, for today’s drive and for making me feel welcome on my first drive back with Carnity after three years away!

I was definitely a little rusty, especially with the ridge riding, and struggled to keep up at times. I really appreciate everyone’s patience while I found my rhythm again. It was a learning experience, and I took a lot away from it.

Unfortunately, near the end, what appeared to be a seized alternator left my car unable to continue. A special thank you to @DP1011 for being so supportive throughout, @Infaz for pulling me out with his Ram, and @Gaurav for taking the wheel of my car and getting it safely out. I’m very grateful to everyone who stayed and helped.

I felt bad for holding the group up, especially on my first drive back, but your support reminded me why I wanted to return to this community. Hopefully, I’ll see you all again soon with the car sorted and a little more confidence! 🙏

No worries @Rashid Alseeni! These things happen! That’s all part of offroading. Good to see everyone helping each other out. That’s what Carnity is all about! 

Hope you get the car sorted soon and see you back in the dunes again.

Thank you, @DP1011, for organizing the drive!! Amazing convoy today! We had a bit of everything, from a couple of pop outs to a car breakdown!

That’s what this sport is all about learning from every experience! helping each other out and coming out stronger as a team!! 

Thank you to the support team, @Andrew John Melvill @Gaurav Soniand @Looper for all the guidance and support throughout the drive. It was a pleasure driving with you all!

This will be one of my favorite drives, not because of the pace, not because of the track, not because of the weather or the fun we had while driving, neither because of the dunes BUT for one simple reason: the club truly stands for TEAM SPIRIT

Every member who joined today became a support member at some point—helping through the pop-outs, tackling crests that needed shoveling, and managing the car breakdown. Even when we offered a smaller convoy so people could leave on time while we assisted the broken-down car, not a single person wanted to leave anyone behind. It reinforced exactly what we stand for: we go as one team, and we exit as one team.

Thank you all for demonstrating this spirit. I look forward to seeing everyone again soon!

 

@Gaurav Soni @Looper @Andrew John Melvill @Infaz @Amer Alsabbagh @Kishor @Sheho @Rashid Alseeni @Enrico - Mountain !

@Rashid Alseeni - you dont need to be sorry for today, it can happen with anyone of us and glad that we were all out safe and hope your car is fixed soon and see you soon ! We all learn everyday !

Today was a great day of Carnity desert off-roading! Thank you @DP1011 for organising a great drive with a fantastic support team (which was everyone on the drive).

The event that happened twice ('popouts') is the thing we shall not mention, as it seems speaking about it only makes it a reality - a mistake I made last week, and a hypothesis we confirmed today. Glad to have been able to assist with my Air Jack and @Gaurav Soni for demonstrating how to use it so effectively, he even gave me a second opportunity to practice on 'purpose'. 

Everyone drove so well, especially when tackling the longer flowing dunes and ridges! But the key take-away today is the Carnity Club spirit and comradery that turns every trip into a life-long memory.

I uploaded a few pictures to today's gallery.
