Good morning everyone!

I hope everyone enjoyed this session on a sunny Sunday afternoon :)

We started with some theory in the shadow of a nearby tree. Focusing on what is generally expected from a Support Team role, how we work together as a team, and how we can take extra precautions when dealing with fire or first aid situations. 

After about an hour, we hopped into our cars and moved into a technical area which was slow but was good fun, even with a Dodge Ram @Infaz who managed it extremely well. @Ishak was our Newbie yesterday and tried giving us some challenges and tantrums but nothing the team couldnt handle.

After the technical area we moved into Little Sweihan. An area where constant momentum is needed but instant satisfaction is given :) 

We had some good fun but could see the sun slowly setting, so we decided to loop back through the Baja track and exited at the same Faqa road where we started. All in all, a great afternoon with great people!

See you all soon again!

Thank you @Frederic

It was such a useful training session and had great fun throughout.. 

Really enjoyed supporting @Ishak and @Giacomo (both newbies). It also shows their skills in deliberately getting stuck and making it look like they actually need support!!

Appreciate everyone who joined and made the training so much fun. The little Sweihan drive was fantastic. Absolutely loved it!!

Now waiting for an IM drive from you Fred. 😎
