Thanks a lot indeed! Hi @AlexPol. I will add you. Thanks Dear Desertnauts, as we are getting ready for the drive, here is some feedback from yesterday's recce drive (thanks @MUHAMMAD Kashif RAZZAQ for coming along). The drive will be clearly divided into 2 parts. The first in Al Ain territory, will be on open dune terrain, with relatively high formations, quite close to each other, but strung in a canyon's like fashion. The driving will be made more difficult by the presence of tracks, left by what appeared to be an earth moving machine, and visible pretty much all over the place. Even with these man-made obstacles, we'll make the drive challenging for ourselves by looking to move through the corridors at higher speeds, until we'll reach first the area close to the E20, then back toward Faqa, to arrive at the crossing of E14. This is where the second part of the drive will start, just in the Dubai side of Faqa's border district, across very tall and long range dunes, where occasional groups of trees hide in small valleys. More side-sloping and criss-crossing will be practiced in this area, less marked by recent human activity. Our planned exit will be in Faqa town. @darren thompson, @PaoloMaraziti, @Sunil Mathew, @Looper, @Ehab, @JeromeFJ, @Tareck,@Darren Brooke, @Chris Wing, @Mus_hus78, @Niki, @AlexPol, @Wrangeld (thanks for your extremely valuable and reassuring presence) and @Alex Raptor, Tomorrow the final convoy members and order will be issued, together with meeting/deflation point, and radio channel. Enjoy the end of the week, and see you soon. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ale Vallecchi Posted October 1, 2021 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted October 1, 2021 Dear Desertnauts, here's tomorrow convoy order: @Niki will be my Second Lead @Ehab will be driving at #3 @Sunil Mathew at #4 @Mus_hus78 at #5 @JeromeFJ will be #6 @Chris Wing #7 @Wrangeld will be the Anchor of the convoy @Tareck at #9 @Looper will be #10 @PaoloMaraziti will take #11 @AlexPol #12 @darren thompson will line up at #13 @Russ in place #14 @Darren Brooke at #15, and @Alex Raptor will carry a very long broom, to Sweep this giant convoy. I have chosen to increase the length of the convoy, both in consideration of the drivers' quality and experience (with an equal mix of Intermediates and above, and Fewbie Plus), as well as with the goal to share the fun with as many member friends as possible (thanks, also, to the support of very experienced drivers). Nonetheless, in light of the convoy's length, extra caution will be required, not only in choosing a path that can remain drivable all the way to the end of the line, but also in following it safely and attentively. Each Fewbie Plus member will be guided through the drive by an Intermediate or above driver, who will be able to show the best lines of approach, and "tutor" the more junior member throughout the drive, from their position just in front of them. The entry point has been chosen at the margin of an area of camel farms, in Faqa's Al Ain region, off of the Dubai-Al Ain highway, and reachable via very badly paved roads (with lots of pot-holes, so careful driving on them). This is where we'll be assembling: https://maps.app.goo.gl/V1s5p28WZHdvNQp1A Please reach the location below in time for an early deflation, with the expected time of departure as close to 6AM as possible: The Carnity radio frequency will be Channel 1 (446.006). Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow morning. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
