Difflock while helpful in stucks is not a mandatory requirement for our kind of offroading. They become very important if you are doing rock crawling or in muddy terrains

Guys you already outguessed me!! 

I wanted to ask if someone wanted to meet at Barracuda's Thunder Road Grill for lunch before going to the deflation point. They accept max 4 people per table, so if you feel like and confirm who's coming for lunch, I can book the tables. We can meet there at 1:30 PM (service is a little slow but the food is good).

Please confirm who feels like it. 

PS - In case you want to shop for booze, make sure you can secure it safely in the car during the drive. 

 

@Kalahari this time we're going the other way 🤓. But will keep it in mind. 

Me me me!!! Add me to the lunch meetup please 😋

especially if the debriefing point is Barracuda

Actually, the cheapest place is Al Hamra Cellar, in Alhamra Village. At least 30% cheaper than the 3 providers in RAK area.

Certainly! And as we come as an indivisible pack, @Foxtrot Oscar will be there too 😁

Dear @Shiju Manuel, @asifk welcome to the drive. Please read (if you haven't done it already) the drive's presentation above. It will be useful in preparing for the trip. Also, let me know if you will be joining for lunch at Barracuda's grill. See you on Saturday.
