Jeepie Posted April 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 @Watteau @Thomas Fumarola @Ahmed Wagdy @Ehab @Ranjan Das @Werno @sheri @Yahya Munir @marks A very misty drive to Lisaili but everybody was on time, except for @Senthil Kumar who didn't turn up eventhough we waited a little bit just in case he was late because of the fog. After leading the convoy in to the desert, I handed over the lead to Mark and I think he was doing fine. There were some extremely soft patches and I wish I would have recorded the perfect blib blib that Mark demonstrated to get him out of an extreme soft area. A little redirection here and there to stay out of the high pressure gas line area or to get into the more interesting dunes, but overall Mark managed to get us to the playarea quite smoothly. Playing around was a lot of fun except for Ahmeds passenger, so not feeling well enough to continue the drive towards Sky Dubai we had to exit them to the nearest exit at the farm and that is where Yahya decided that he would exit early as well. Now with a somewhat smaller convoy we moved to the Sky Dubai exit, trying to steer away from restricted area's and barb wire, we managed to find some nice dunes and exited almost on time. Well done everyone, no mayor stucks and quite a nice drive. Congratulations to Mark for a proper first lead. See you all again soon A few pictures in the gallery 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
