Definitely not, as Fewbie Plus is a level of drive for Fewbie Plus and above rank of offroaders. You can go through this off-road structure to get familiar with various off-road ranks we have. 1 2 Let's root for each other & watch each other grow.

Ale Vallecchi Posted September 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2021 Dear Desertnauts. Nice to get back to our Midweek drives. In line with such past drives, we'll look into a route which mixes parts of other tracks, connecting dots to draw a new itinerary, carved especially for our afternoons' explorations. The meeting point will be off the road connecting E66 and E44, just past Margham's village (our first "M"), through an open fence, on the left side of the road. From there we'll launch into the red sand bowls overlooking Nazwa (to the eastern side), then we'll turn back to cross the technical dunes in the direction of Lisaili. Once completed this first half of the drive, we'll cross underneath E66, to reach Lisaili's long range dunes and eastern sabkhas, and from there we'll search for the gap through more tight cordons that will allow us to arrive in Murqab (our other "M"). The convoy is quite experienced, and will line up as follows: @Alain Canivet-Abikhalil in Second Lead @Aus Alzubaidi in #3 place @Senthil Kumar will be #4 @PaoloMaraziti at #5 @Hisham Masaad in Center Forward @Sunil Mathew will be #7 @Rawad at #8 @darren thompson will drive at #9, while @Alex Raptor will Sweep. The meeting time has been set at 2:30 PM, in light of slightly lower temperatures and shorter days. Please reach the meeting point a bit earlier, so we can move speedily. The radio channel will be chosen on the spot. Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow. Have a nice evening. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
