Saturday Morning Intermediate Desert Drive - Sweihan - Abu Dhabi - 31 Oct 2026

@all Just a reminder I will post the convoy order about this time tomorrow. Just make sure you day is clear and try not to have any late moment dropouts.

@Beide Worku you are on waitlist for FB+ drive on Saturday. What are you hedging?

In case you refuse to take me @Looper  just being slow to remove my waitlists, on it. 

@Looper removing myself from the list, looks like a really fun line up and a nice drive but have to be honest with myself and there are just not enough hours in this weekend to make it all work.

Enjoy!

I am curious to know which would be the exit of the drive, as i will have a visitor with me who would park his car in sweihan. if we are exiting in Faya then i need to inform him.

We will exit at Fayah, but you will come back to Swihan to go back to Dubai. So you can plan to park the car near the Fuel Pump. and on the way you can pick up and go.

Good evening gents. We will start with Ch 4.

In the morning we will use https://sandscope.net/gpxapp/ to track the convoy. We will use this instead of Garmin Tread app. You can add it to your phone as a web app. No sign in required. I will create a code in the morning so that we can drive as convoy. 

My car is showing the SERV 4WD amber sign when I started the car now in morning, and it’s not disappearing. I would drop the drive to avoid any risk and delay to the convoy if any problem occurs in drive for this error. Will miss the fun today. Apologies.

No problem, take care. Hopefully, we meet next time.

It was cool in the morning around 20°C, it did not last too long though. The entire track was busy and was difficult to find any place we could do stunts. All that I could do is find clean dune tops to keep driving at a steady pace. The convoy kept up with the pace though out and we had only few easy refusals throughout. At about 9:20 we reached the fox hole. We restarted at 9:30 with a target to get out by 10:00. But unfortunately we had a pop out and we had to replace the spare tire.

Thank you @Mahmut, @Noufal,  @Krinesh, @Beide Worku and @Emanuel for joining the drive.

Congratulations @Noufal on your first IM Drive. Special thanks to @Mahmut for the excellent second lead and @Emanuel for your support at the back.

See you all soon. Till next time have great weekend.
