COVID19 Compliant - Wednesday Morning Intermediate Desert Drive - Shuwaib - Sharjah - 21 Jul 2021

Recommended Posts

Shuwaib offers some of the tallest set of dunes outside of Abu Dhabi. With its innumerous hills and bowls, its the perfect playground to push driver and car at the rev limit on a continuous basis. Expect a fast paced drive with long hill climbs, crisscrossing on top of the dunes and various bowls with ofcourse plenty of soft sand due to the summer heat. 

--------------------

This drive is organized in full compliance with the COVID19 guidelines. We expect every member that joins this drive to go through below information and strictly follow these guidelines in order not to jeopardize someone's health, and to ensure we can keep organizing these drives safely.

Thanks to those who have signed up in one of my favorite areas for Intermediate Drives. To describe what to expect tomorrow in a single word is.... Fast pace. Ok, that's two words but you get the gist.

So be fully focussed as there would not be much room for lapses in concentrations on this terrain.

Convoy Numbering

1. SK - Cherokee XJ

2. Mario - Y61 SWB

3. Lakshmi Narasimhan - Pajero 3.8 LWB

4. Thomas Varghese - Xterra

5. Gaurav Soni - Pajero

6. Abu Muhammad - Sequndra

7. Nivin - Xterra

We shall be using Carnity Channel 3 for tomorrow. See you at 5:00 AM.
