[Shaaz Sha]

Hi @Vanessa8580, my apologies that I will not be able make it since I have an issue with my car. Sorry for being late to inform . 🙏🙏🙏

[N@ved]

@Vanessa8580thanks for one of the smoothest drives (you already have a reputation for it 😀)....

thanks for allowing me to support you on the drive it was fantastic, got so much to learn.

I think the whole convoy should be proud of themselves, everyone did very well, a few refusals here and there were managed with ease.

@Ammar Naji and @Zixuan Huang both did very well to support the rest of the convoy.

have a great weekend guys, hope to catch up with you all soon. 

[Ammar Naji]

Beautiful drive, glad that we pretty much had the desert for ourselves along with few camels. It was my first time as a sweeper (didn't have to do much as everyone drove smoothly). Excellent route and leadership @Vanessa8580.  Happy we got in and out on time.

[Cha]

Honored to be the second lead today, my first time as well, thank you @Vanessa8580for giving me this chance!

Thanks@N@ved  see you round the sand~
