Trip report from my eye.

It was an amazing drive. Everyone was there on time. We started after checking all the cars tire pressures and hooks. A small brief was given by Sri and he ask few questions to make sure everyone watch the newbie brief video.

Sri really knows how to build the pace. Today i am sure our absolute newbies learned a lot. They learned how to go strait up and straight down. They learned how to do small side slopes. They learned how to deal with refusals and they learned how to deal with stucks. I saw some people had struggle at the beginning but with time everyone warmed up and they followed the convoy perfectly. Very big thanks to @Srikumar for great lead. @paolo dassi showed his talent as 2th lead. He did the right moves to keep the convoy safe. Thanks to all participants for this great drive.

Great drive, amazing reading of convoy level of confidence from @Srikumar. Started easy and lifted the level little by little as drivers confidence increased. Definitely a good and enjoyable newbie drive, some refusals and stucks here and there always happily and efficiently solved with the help of @Srikumar and @sertac. Any stuck and refusal teaches something and they are definitely part of any drive! At the beginning sand seemed to be quite hard with dunes shaped by the wind blowing the couple of days before the drive, while it became softer as the drive progressed. All in all yet another great experience, thank you to all the participants and see you next time! Some pictures and a video here as usual.
