And personally, I prefer not to take a passenger, especially for night drives in such areas. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like 5:30 am till 11:00 am still looks fair to me. At 8:00 AM it's close to 40 degrees, wait till Aug end will start the morning drives. Until then, it's gonna be night drives every week - 1 week (newbie+fewbie), 2nd week (Intermediate). 6 Let's root for each other & watch each other grow.

Popular Post Emmanuel Posted June 14, 2019 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 TRIP REPORT @Srikumar, @Javier M and myself met on time directly at deflation point. Unfortunately @Gaurav had to cancel at the last minute because of a mechanical issue on his Pajero. @Frederic, @G.huz and @sertac, who wanted to join as well couldn’t make it. Along with @Rahimdad and @Asif Hussain, all of you guys missed us. One of the very nice aspects of summer night drives in those famous areas is the virgin sands. At many points of our drive we could hear the sand cracking on descents... Yesterday we had decided to explore the southern part of Sweihan, actually closer to Al-Ain. We have been able to keep a good pace in spite of a few refusals and stucks - the minimum due to this kind of tricky terrain. And thanks to Sri and Javier, this drive has been very fun from the beginning till the end. We finally stopped at about 3:30 AM only because we started to feel a bit tired and hungry, so we ate and took a good nap at 300m above the sea, with cool breeze, moonlight and shining stars. We also could see Jebel Hafeet lights climbing to the sky, far away above the horizon. At 5, I woke up Sri and Javier. Not without difficulty since they were both in a deep sleep. I had to use lound music, lights, start my engine... After a few side slopings just to be sure everyone was awake, we covered the short distance left to the track and we inflated while the sun was rising. I am very happy that we have discovered 2 or 3 amazing play areas. We must go there again with all those who missed this drive... or explore Sweihan-Naqrah-Al-Ain area further, which is full of hidden jewels, for sure ! 4 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
