Xavier Treasurer Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 1 hour ago, Frederic said: @Xavier Treasurer some remaining spots became available so if you are interested in shifting to the Fewbie convoy please let me know so i can put you in. In that case kindly inform the Newbie convoy lead on the drive topic. @SureshVNair can you please confirm you will attend the LIWA drive ? @Frederic thanks, but my situation changed. I will be taking my 12 year old son along. I have therefore decided to remain in the newbie drive. Please allocate the position to another willing member and remove my name from the Fewbie RSVP. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Frederic Posted November 30, 2020 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 DRIVE RSVP IS NOW CLOSED I hope by now you guys are preparing your vehicles, checking the oil levels, filling up the jerry-can, and getting the much needed rest. Although I see some are still doing a morning drive tomorrow (hats off to that).. Its about a 3,5 hour drive from Dubai (depending where you live) and I hope you take enough rest beforehand and come prepared for a day full of amazing adventures which will amaze you, but will be tiring and demanding as well. The LIWA desert can be unforgiving and we will need to work together as a team to get the convoy moving. I will stress on the fact that your radios should be fully charged, shovels, flags and a compressor are an absolute necessity, and your vehicle gas tank should be full upon your arrival with the extra 20L jerrycan with you. I would also highly advise you to wear protective clothing, closed shoes, and a cap to protect you during this long day. The COVID rules as we are applying them on our weekly drives are valid in LIWA as well. We will be having two convoys, of which @Asif Hussain will be leading the first convoy, and I will be leading the second. For the ones who have not met Asif yet, he has been with Carnity from the early days and his work behind the screens and his amazing drives he is organizing in Abu-Dhabi every week shows his commitment and amazing amount of skills to choose the right tracks and lead convoys through this challenging terrain. Convoy numbering will be announced in the morning once we see all the members having arrived safely. Convoy 1 Setup: LEAD: Asif Hussain - Nissan Xterra (050 699 0411) mobile only for emergency use Members: @Ahab Shamaa @Arda Yagcioglu @SureshVNair @Archibald Jurdi @Sinol @Francois Germishuys@Ashok chaturvedi Support from: @Rahimdad and @Brette Carnity Channel #3: 446.05625 Mhz Meeting Point Convoy 1:https://maps.app.goo.gl/RNbxJpXeC7tUtNsz8 Convoy 2 Setup: LEAD: Frederic - Pajero SWB (056 504 26 32) mobile only for emergency use Members: @Malachy McGrogan @jodha singh shekhawat @Ranjan Das @Abu Muhammad @siddharth maheshwari @Lucky sAm @Athula Dharmadada @Yasas Dharmadasa Support from @Wrangeld and @Lorenzo Candelpergher Carnity Channel #4: 446.08125 Mhz Meeting Point Convoy 2:https://maps.app.goo.gl/sbJd7AKqXixPh5dm8 Please be sharp on time 08:00AM as we will be moving immediately after deflation and we will not wait for members who are late. Action Plan: We will be driving the whole day going southwards with the plan to reach Moreeb Dune by 4PM where we will meetup with the other Carnity Convoys. If you cannot make it, please leave a message on the drive topic and remove your RSVP. See you guys Wednesday morning ! 7 2 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @Francois Germishuys this event has been posted more than two weeks back and requires a lot of preparation such as DPI test to be able to cross the border, Jerrycan with extra fuel, and a fully serviced vehicle. I have closed the RSVP a half hour back but can allow you in only if you confirm you have ALL preparations taken care off.... 2 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further."
