Decided to extend the convoy a little to accommodate everyone on the waitlist since we have some extra support as well.

Mehmet will be leading (part of) the drive as part of his  training to become a leader with Carnity

We will be using channel 1

Hope to see  you all tomorrow

@Jeepie, @Mehmet Volga,thank you for the drive and sorry that I had to exit early.

The terrain was challenging and the sand was very soft, in which the convoy had multiple refusals starting with a very early one by me 😃 thanks to the help from the guys digging the sand out of my tires and the instructions from Richard @Wrangeld I was out in few minutes.

Couple of Hours later my kids got bored and started nagging in the back, and with unfortunate water hose burst on @rajeshkumar rathod car, he had to exit out, so I decided to end my drive as well since I didn't want to loose concentration driving. Sorry again for the early exit, Kids will remain kids at the end of the day...

@rajeshkumar rathod, hope that the recovery vehicle didn't take much time to reach you, hope it is just a simple fix on the car.

Thank you @Jeepie @Mehmet Volga and @Wrangeld for great drive. Refusal are part of the game. Unfortunate for @rajeshkumar rathod hope all went good. 

Special thanks @Wrangeld for tip of not going tip off, that hold me back to my conscious ,really that helped a lot.

Have great days ahead all.

Thank you @Jeepie and @Mehmet Volgafor the amazing lead 👏 

It was surely challenging at the back with some soft churned up sand but having @Wrangeld at sweep position was definitely boosting my confidence. Summer seems to be playing its part now and opening a new phase of learning in the chapter of sand for us 🤞.

Thank you @Danish Mohammad for managing CF for the first time, you should only get better and better from here 👍

 

Thank you everyone else in today's convoy, see you soon in the sand InshaAllah 😊

@Mehmet Volga @Larry Cadden @Lawrence_Chehimi @Arshad Roojee  @Serafino @Danish Mohammad @Pacific @rajeshkumar rathod @topgear @Ali Abas @Abdul Rahman Abdul Kader @Antoz @Wrangeld     

 It is getting hot!

And I must admit after a morning drive with quite a lot of digging, I was a bit tired, but Mehmet took the lead and he did really well.

Finding your way and making sure the level of the drive is right and keeping a nice pace isn't easy. We had to redirect a little when we were getting too close to the high pressure gas line, but Mehmet coped really well. A little right and left going around it, and back on track we were. With the playable dunes in sight, we had to exit the X terra and two more cars left us due to bored children or busy timetables. The rest of us reentered and we were off to have some fun. After playing a little, I decided to give Mehmet the lead again, as I felt he should have some fun with all of us following as well. I hope you all enjoyed this little desert dessert .There were some refusals and stucks but nothing out of the ordinary.

Being second lead and keeping an eye on Mehmet, means I didn't take a lot of pictures, but I posted a few

Looking forward to more drives with Mehmet in the lead

The temperature was around 37 deg cel and it was certainly warmer than the last afternoon drive that I had the week before. Nevertheless, it was still a great drive and learnt something new again. The terrain and challenges were mixed and it was great. The entire convoy was helpful and managed to deal with all the challenges. I enjoyed following your tracks and did not encounter any major stuck @rajeshkumar rathod, I hope your car is sorted soon. Thanks to @Mehmet Volga and @Jeepie for leading the convoy and the dessert at the end.  Special thanks to @Wrangeld for giving me the tug when I got crested and for the radio guidance when I had a couple more refusals towards the end. Hope to see you all soon! I have shared some photos too.
