Salarios Posted January 8, 2021 Report Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) Thank you @Vanessa8580 and the entire team for an incredible day today. It was a good mix of technical dunes in the beginning, an exhilirating ride up Faya Mountain, and finally a nice cruise through the bowls. Here are a few snaps of the day. Have a great weekend everyone! Cheers, Salar Edited January 8, 2021 by Salarios Spelling 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Vanessa8580 Posted January 8, 2021 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted January 8, 2021 Drive report It was quite chilly this morning and the heavy wind made it even feel colder than it was. I was happy to have my hoodie en my scarf with me and I had my seat warmers on in the car .... Once everyone arrived and deflated, I did a quick briefing and we started to move. I explained in my briefing that we were going to do some technical terrain first, then a few kilometers on a dirt track before we would reach Faya. We had no issues at all in Suweydan and could keep a good pace so we reached Faya after 1 hour. Luckily it was very quiet at Faya so everyone had a turn to try and make it all the way up from the front. @Salarios @Yusuf Esaf @AlexPol @Jack Thomas @Nivin @Vineeth John Joseph @Karthik Krishnakumar and even @Jon M with the Montero Sport made it up ! He was very impressed with his car and he had a smile from 1 ear to the other !! The 3 Pajero's all had a try but couldn't make it and @Ranjan Das missed a few horses I'm afraid or maybe it was the very heavy tyres on his car, he was a bit disappointed he couldn't make it up but he will make it one day .... After a while, we saw @sertac convoy approaching so we made space and moved on to the bowls behind Faya. It was getting a little more busy in the area with a lot of different other convoys so we had to be careful. Everyone drove very well in and out the bowls and we didn't have any mayor issue just a few refusals which could be handled very easily. After last week's drive with a lot of shoveling, I didn't have to take out my shovel this week ! Thank you @Nivin and @Salarios for all your guidance over the radio, I was lucky to have such good support. I think everyone had a lot of fun, I sure did have a lot of fun, and I hope to see everyone again very soon ..... 4 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
