Dear Unexplored Explorers

Here is the convoy list for the tomorrow PM drive. This is the list as published at 14.35 so may change based on last minute pull out from the drive. 

There is a big event taking place in Qudra tomorrow that will impact on traffic and access I advise approaching the start point from Sharjah side (E66) instead of E63 to avoid delays.

Looking forward to seeing everyone for what will be a fun and exciting expedition in the Qudra regions that are not ususally investigated. 

Have a great day. 

See you soo in the sand. 

I love the confidence you have in Arman and I. Makes me feel happy and shows that I’m actually progressing! Can’t wait to see you tomorrow in the sand. 

P.S love meeting my fellow pickup drivers!! @Jack Thomas

@Wrangeld I was relying on Adnoc at last exit and was there 1:30 to find it’s  closed for some reason so had to make my way back to ENOC at Akoya and then roundabout at the bike roundabout .. my ETA now shows 2:11.. so hopefully will make it.. apologize for this unexpected delay

This drive totally deserved its title (at least for me😉) as I have never been on this side of Qudra🤨. So was a really good experience and would definitely like to go there again...

Despite of the delay that @Wrangeld had due to his drive in the morning, he was still so enthusiastic and full of energy to take us through this technical terrain, I really have loads of appreciation for this Sir...thank you so much...was definitely a day full of challenges for you...hopefully you can catch up on some well deserved rest😉

I would like to extend my special thanks to @Tbone to have taken us through some dunes while waiting for Richard and those were really nice and thanks for his valuable support throughout the drive...

@Islam Soliman, thank you for being a great sweep...

Also the team we had yesterday, thank you all for your patience and you all did great👍
