Lorenzo Candelpergher Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 Drive Brief This drive will allow to discover a beautiful and largely untamed stretch of desert, i.e. the area of Al Fayah in Abu Dhabi, on the south east side of E75 Al Fayah road. This area is known for its bright sand, its big dunes with sharp crests and its large swooping bowls. In such an ideal territory for a Fewbie Drive, we will enter at 7:00am from E75, heading east. After reaching an area of stunning rock formations unexpectedly emerging out of the sand, we will loop back to our entry point heading west facing the sunset, getting back on the tarmac of E75, hopefully carrying away a great deal of fun and memories from this inspiring discovery drive.

Eduardo sos Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 Hi guys, I was 30 min away from the meeting point driving from Dubai. Police control asked me about a PCR 14 days or less and I got one 16 days old. I was not aware of this between emirates, my fault. you guys enjoy the dunes, hope we can do it next weekend.
