Hi guys,

Thank you all for turning up even though the fog made it quite hard to get there on time! After allowing a bit of extra time for the fog to clear we were on our way and I think the whole convoy was doing well. The whole drive was quite smooth with only a few refusals and stucks.

After practicing some ridge riding on the lower dunes near 2nd of december cafe, we went to the slightly bigger ones around Pink Rock and as everybody was coping very well, we moved on to Big Red and the other tall dunes next to it.

@Szymon Stankiewicz so nice to see you after a very long time, and you did a great job as second lead.

@Arda Yagcioglu and @RaYan E you both seemed to be doing great without any issues.

@Tamas Hoffmannyou handled the few recoveries very well, with the right amount of pull in a safe way.

@Andrei and @Luca Bregni great job, even though you had to hold in difficult spots sometimes because the convoy stopped moving, you managed really well.

@Tariq Carrimjee I hardly noticed you were on my drive, so I guess you didn't have any issues either.

@Christian Andras thank you for keeping everyone together and choosing positions where I could see you most of the time whenever we were waiting for a refusal or a stuck. That makes life a lot easier for the lead.

@Aravind Padmaraju where were you?

To the whole convoy, what I really liked is : you were holding your position whenever there was a refusal rather than moving forward as far as you could, which meant the person behind you was still able to follow the track. You were all patient and very much a team.

@Szymon Stankiewicz I am sorry you damaged your skid plate and I hope you will get it fixed soon, but it was nice of you to do it right at the end of the drive.

Hope to see you again soon
