Hi Srikumar,

I have a Y61 Nissan Patrol Super Safari that I’ve picked up a few months ago. I’ve taken a couple of classes with Galadari for offroad driving so I have basic knowledge and have self-driven once after that. My car has front & rear tow hooks, and I have a portable compressor on hand.

Hello Sreekumar,

Ill be driving my pathfinder (R51) for the Friday absolute Newbie drive. I have got flag, uhf radio, deflator, tow rope and a small portable compressor. 

I am kind of new to off-roading but have done few trips with my friends. Looking forward for the exiting event. 👍🏻

Damien

As a first timer, we highly recommend driving alone for the first drive to avoid any distractions that can cause serious issue sometimes.

From the second drive onward you are most welcome to bring your friends and family in your car as a passenger.
