Jeepie Posted March 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) With a very strong convoy we set off under Kailas' lead. A little correction in direction at the start was all it took, and then @Kailas was in his element. With some lovely wide dunes and a few little technical areas, we ended up at a perfect slope, where Kailas showed us what a good teacher he is. Showing us how to side slope, ridge ride and criss cross one by one. After checking out that nobody was fighting gravity and everyone was coping quite well, we set off again finding nice dunes to practice what we learned. A few refusals and a couple of stucks are all part of the game. Nothing serious and all solved with the help of @AlexPol and @Watteau (another Alex). Nice to see @Sinol that you are no longer shy on the gas,@William Fernandes no longer fighting gravity and @Ranjan Das that you are getting used to the new car feeling more confident. A Special shout out for all the less experienced Fewbies @Lawrence_Chehimi @Mikhail Lukichev @Federico De Chirico @Salty3Arab and @Watteau you all did a great job. Very strong convoy. I certainly enjoyed the drive. Hope you did too. And @Lawrence_Chehimi thanks again for pointing out the loose hose hanging from my car. See you all again soon Pictures in the gallery Edited March 13, 2021 by Jeepie 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See you all again soon Pictures in the gallery I wished to join but after almost 18 hours of driving yesterday I knew I will be a burden on the convoy. Started yesterday to drive at 4.30am and reached back home at 10.30 pm. As my wife reminded me that even though I may feel energetic at heart but remember my body is old now. I wished I would have been in the sands with you all. I wonder how @Kailas managed to reach and join you. Perhaps he didn't go home. Camped near our exit point only last night. More than his wrangler floating on the sands he may have been floating around after all the torture we subject him to at yesterday's afternoon drive Edited March 13, 2021 by Thomas Varghese 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Fernandes Posted March 13, 2021 Report Share Posted March 13, 2021 I echo @Jeepie’s comment of an excellent drive had today. I extend my appreciation to @Kailas for his excellent lead under @Jeepie’s supervision. I also wish to thank @AlexPol and @Watteau for their keen support throughout the drive and ofcourse the rest of the members in the convoy. We held it together and had great fun! Thank you! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence_Chehimi Posted March 13, 2021 Report Share Posted March 13, 2021 Thank you @Jeepie and @Kailas for the drive, it was the first time I do some long ridge riding, it was so exciting. @Kailas you managed the lead really well, i like how calm you always are.. Looking forward for the next fewbie drive.. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
