COVID-19 Compliant - Morning Fewbie Desert Drive - Flavours of Faqa - Dubai - 25 Dec 2020

DRIVE REPORT

It's so nice when a plan comes together....

We had a compact yet very capable convoy today, and the first part was a Pajero convoy, with @Rizwan Waheed @Syed Raza Hussain @Anvar Sadath Bekal showing us that a LWB Pajero can tackle anything and go very far in the right hands. Well done guys !

@Aravind Padmaraju was on his first Fewbie drive, and got immediately thrown into a decent paced drive, but apart from some minor refusals, you did amazing and i hope you enjoy your new deserved level !

Towards the back we had a Wrangler crew with @siddharth maheshwari @Arun Mathew @MUHAMMAD Kashif RAZZAQ easily digesting the challenges thrown at them. Amazing work guys !

@Atif was our trusty sweep, and handled the recoveries superbly. 

We covered almost 65kms and that says alot about your skillsets !

See you guys soon in the sand again ! Enjoy the festive holidays !!

@Frederic thanks for managing this drive. Another well-spent active weekend in the desert thanks to you for sacrificing Christmas Day that you could have spent on a personal plan on your own. Shows your commitment and passion for this desert activity.

The drive had its fair share of learning for me too as it was the first fewbie drive of the year. It helped that the number of cars and being in a sweep position provided the right amount of learning opportunities. 
Thanks to all who participated and supported each other in today’s drive.

Special thanks to @MUHAMMAD Kashif RAZZAQ for keeping me informed of places my prado had to be careful.

@Frederic Thanks and it was amazing experience. Really enjoyed whole drive....

Today’s morning was a cold one, with 16 degrees celsius outside, all drivers assembled at the meeting point, full of energy and passion for the drive.

Special thanks to @Frederic for fixing the transfer case linkage and saving a beautiful morning from being ruined. A tow truck would be on its way if it wasn’t for you buddy 😂.

The drive was fast paced with tons of technical dunes to conquer, which really tested the driver’s control on their car and their concentration on the path ahead.

@Atif bhai did a great job recovering fellow drivers out of ‘stuck’ position. We also had the pleasure to assist in recovering your car as well 😂

It was a fun day..!
