Hello Everyone,

I hope you all are doing well and i am looking forward to see you for the drive tomorrow. Our plan for the drive, is to start from Murquab area, work towards Lisaili and Qudra until sunset. We will go through different types of terrain with a good mixture of technical and long range dune too. I have attached the convoy list below and we will be using the Radio Channel 1 (44600625). Till then, take care and be safe.

Thank you @Anish S for putting me as your second lead. You know how much I like this position :)
I had a few refusals today, I felt that I didn't deflate my tires enough at the beginning of the ride and also probably because I was too close to you at some moments and couldn't calibrate my momentum.

Overall, I really enjoyed the ride especially that you took us into unusual dune path. You really made the best out of the 3 hours of driving. Sometimes technical dunes are "too technical" but as mentioned during the drive, your track made us all enjoy it (even @RooRzOn ??)

@Lakshmi Narasimhan and @RooRzOn you made such a good job that from my position I almost never saw what was happening in the back except when we were looping and got to see everyone riding superbly !

And @Marwan Haddad very well done, you managed to rectify the route perfectly several times.

Cheers !

Super drive this afternoon! We started with military precision and finished on time.

Really enjoyed the tight technical stuff, a first for me . The pace was good and we covered around 62kms so we managed to stretch our legs as well. I know everyone says this but everyone drove so well, even in the soft powder criss crossing without knowing what is on the other side.  

We enjoyed a glorious sunset set against a postcard dune backdrop. 

Nice to see familiar faces and to meet new ones. Thanks again @Anish S for the planning and the lead and to the impeccable support from @Alain Canivet-Abikhalil@Lakshmi Narasimhanand @RooRzOn

I came straight from the office so didn't have my big camera to take many snaps unfortunately.

Have a good week ahead!
