Rahimdad Posted October 29, 2020 Report Share Posted October 29, 2020 Congratulations @Lorenzo Candelpergher. True off-road enthusiast and fellow relief seeker in the sea of dunes. The calm of the desert, the undivided attention to tackle every dune, the absolute perfect way to take your mind away from the daily hassles of life. Allowing people like us to come back to our working week with new energy, vigour and fresh mind with fresh ideas. Welcome to the side where it gets more engrossing during the week as we try to balance Carnity drives and everything else in between. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lorenzo Candelpergher Posted November 1, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 1, 2020 (edited) Dear @Gaurav, @Rahimdad, @Srikumar, @Frederic, @Jeepie, @Brette, @Wrangeld, @Emmanuel, @Ale Vallecchi,@Chaitanya D it was great to learn from Absolute Newbie to Advance by driving following your lead and to enjoy your warm support and true contagious passion for off-roading. In Carnity I found much more than just an off-roading club and the more I proceed in this journey the more I am convinced it was the best choice I could make. Until March 2020 I had spent 12 full years in Dubai and had gone in the desert off-roading only twice, having seen the sunrise only while in a taxi to the airport for one of my hundreds of pre-covid era flights... Now, 7 months later I have driven almost 2000km in the sand in more than 40 drives.. 😂😂 (and no flights!!). Desert off-roading has been the perfect anti-stress medicine during the last difficult months, ensuring every weekend a mental reset (either you disconnect from your phone emails / calls or you crash your car), a full energy top-up (almost literally delivered by sunbeams at dawn) and granting a constantly renewed sense of peace, mindfulness and gratitude that I had somehow lost in my workaholic life. In this 1st chapter of my personal off-roading book, I loved every pop-out, as each time it was reason for my son's greatest excitement, every refusal, every stuck and every recovery. I avidly looked at every landscape and defiantly listened to the roaring of my Y62's 400hp engine. I was thrilled at every deflating and hungry for more driving just after switching off my compressor, while I felt the excitement of a child every time I added a new piece to my off-roading gear, from hat to boots, from flag to floor jack. Above all, however, I especially enjoyed and I am truly thankful for @Wrangeld's constant encouragement, guidance and support, which was the closest thing I can think of to off-roading mentoring. I was amazed by the game-changing impact of some of the advice I received, which transformed my driving performance drastically one week after the other, and amused by Richard's the joyful enthousiasm and infinite patience, which - I must say - is a distinctive trait of all Carnity Seniors. I must also thank @Luca Palanca Falsini, who is the real culprit for my initiation to off-roading. It was him, who first took me to a family off-road drive, after which I signed up with Carnity. Now a new chapter in my off-roading book can be inked: I truly look forward to learning the art of leading in the desert, hoping - one day - to be able to give back as much as I have received so far.

Rahimdad Posted November 1, 2020 Report Share Posted November 1, 2020 @Lorenzo Candelpergher this is a way of life in our community. The more you give, the more you receive. We are all from different walks of life, but come together, some for knowing they are passionate, some about to find that out soon. Love your enthusiasm and energy. I was proud that I had a part to play in developing @Wrangeld to some extent. But feel even prouder when you have been influenced and mentored by him to be at this stage, just as proud he must be of you today. Time will come when people will look up to you and your mentorship. I will be most proud the day when someone writes these same words about how you mentored them to be their best in the desert. This one promotion is evidence to a true community which stands together and takes all enthusiasts along for the ride of their life. Wishing you nothing but the very best and looking to support one of your drives soon. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaitanya D Posted November 2, 2020 Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 (edited) Dear @Lorenzo Candelpergher you have included my name in the group of people who are masters of off roading , its indeed a surprise & pleasure to see that. I like your calm attitude, presence of mind , helpful nature and of course your car with all the mods. Having driven with you on last few drives has made me realise that your presence on any drive is a reassurance for others that help is always available if needed. Very eager to be behind your lead supporting you as well. We do share a common thing that our little monsters accompany us many times, which is a good outing for them in the present times when they are restricted to indoors.
