Dear friends 

@Yousef Alimadadi @Alexander Alcala @Mohamed Seidam @Mukundan Nair @Tero Vallas

waitlist  @Kailas and @Anand Nataraj

thanks for signing up for this drive.  From what it looks we will most likely have a short convoy which is perfect to explore more and have fun.I personally love the 3 car convoy 😍 whenever that happens.

We plan to start from Murqab and drive towards Faqa which is a bit of a technical challenge good to have in the beginning hours.

We then head onto Sabkhas and try to take the cleanest route to the long range "honeymoon" dunes of Faqa, heading towards Solar park as quick as we can.

Depending on the time we reach there we will explore Little sweihan which are great for some play in and out of white sand bowls. Finally heading towards South Qudra and exit there.

While this plan with a "spunk" is specifically for IM to give you a mix of all aspects of desert driving in multiple areas and not just one or two - technical, speed, ridges, crossings , distance covered and play areas . Please note the exit planned is around 11.30 am as we drive through different areas. We will hope to stick to our plan, as plans change in quick time on sands.🤣

Be ready for some good fun on Saturday morning.
