@khurram.k great to see you joining the club. As experienced on MC and advised driving distraction free for first few drives is recommended. once you are more experienced you can bring your family along.

Gentle reminder to:

@Ahmed Mohieddeen @Osama Al Hamwi @Amit SRP @Ashwin0223 @I.M.Shousha إسلام أبوشوشة

Kindly introduce yourself with the following info:

 

1) Which 4x4 are you bringing ?

2) Any prior offroading experience ? If so where and what ?

3) Please confirm your 4x4 has front and rear towpoints that are in perfect condition

 

For your first drive, you would only need a pressure gauge, tyre deflator, and a compressor (the Qudra petrol station compressor is out of service).

Please have a look at the Absolute Newbie briefing video posted in this topic:

Hi Frederic,

Thanks for the warm welcome. 
I’m driving a Jeep Wrangler 2021. I have some off road driving experience in US driving in rock and sand and I had previous off-road trips in the UAE but no hardcore Sand and Convoy style driving experience. 
I should have all towing points installed by default. 
 

Looking forward to meeting you all. 
 

Regards

Shousha
