Dear Desertnauts.

Just a few info from my side, after taking Vanessa's place at the lead, due to her suffering from a bad back which has forced her to stay at home ( @Vanessa8580, best wishes to get well soon!!).

Tawi Nazwa to Pink Rock has been the scene of one of my first Newbie drives with Carnity. Since then, as a leader, I have not driven often in this area, so this will be a welcome return for me on the beautiful red sands of this part of UAE desert. The drive will also provide me, and the convoy, with the opportunity to do a bit of exploring, on the way to Pink Rock and beyond, in search of the exit point, which may either be 2 December Cafeteria, or even Big Red, depending on the convoy's behavior.  

We will proceed on likely soft sand patches, in rather technical terrain, where finesse driving will prevail (soft touches of the gas pedal, alternated to stronger bursts to exit soft bowls). Convoy discipline, in this technical terrain, will be paramount, as members will have to maintain the right distance between each other, to make sure obstacles are cleared before tackling them, and any refusal or stuck does not lead to another one, by the drivers just behind.

@Alfred Alinazar, @Felix Obst, @Gerrit Bus, @Daniel Fernandez, @Ferl Brown, @Jins John, @Simon Hope, @Ramandbx, @Mohamad Anwer, @Super Safari Girl, @Daniel Rodas, @Mikhail Lukichev, welcome to the drive. Convoy order will be given out tomorrow. @Jeepie and @Alexander Alcala, thanks for joining in support. 

Looking forward to seeing you all on Friday morning.
