Thank you for the amazing drive @Gaurav I really enjoyed 4 hours of nonstop driving it was so much fun and I proved to myself how much better I’ve gotten (even after only a few drives) my brother also enjoyed the ride I’m not sure if you all could tell we were jamming out to Arabic music all the way in the back 😂. Good job to everyone since no one got stuck! @Goutam I hope I didn’t destroy the track too much. I was having a lot of fun playing around in the open dunes.

Sadly didn’t take many videos and pictures, the drive was too good to use my phone. 

Inshallah see all of you next drive!

Thanks @Gaurav for leading us in a wonderful drive that afternoon. Everyone drove wonderfully and it was so scarce of any refusals  that we had to look outside our convoy for one. Learnt a lot from that recovery.

I have added few snaps in the gallery.
