Lorenzo Candelpergher Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 Dear Desert Wanderers, Sadly, the time has come for me to leave @Carnity. It has been a wonderful journey and I'm grateful for all the fantastic memories I will carry with me, for all the great friends I have made in my 90 drives with the club (of which 47 as lead) for all the expertise that I have gained and for all the experiences that I have made. I started off-roading as a hobby, an extraordinary way to counter-balance the stress of life with genuine fun, passion, adrenaline and good company. Along the way, however, while I never lost the passion and the adrenaline and I surely made some new good friends, I believe I lost most of the fun, finding myself in a club that is going in a direction which is, unfortunately, no longer where I personally wish to go. It's therefore time for a change, time for new routes in the sand, new photographs, new off-roading experiences. After every dusk, after all, there is a new dawn. I wish to the whole @Carnityfamily, especially the Crew, the Marshals, the Advisors, the Support Team and all those members that I had the pleasure and privilege to meet and drive with, all the best and thank you all for your company, your support, your trust and appreciation. And, who knows, our tracks may cross again in the sand one day or another! 1 1 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Varghese Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Don't know what to write on this. 1st time in my life I experience a complete loss of words to express myself. All I can say is I'm sad to read your farewell message from the club. Always enjoyed driving with you and hope you will come back soon for more drives. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the way you pass on the knowledge was really interesting ( cant forget the fish tailing part 😀 ) Good luck 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Wrangeld Posted January 4, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Dear @Lorenzo Candelpergher this is a sad day for the club. We lose one of the most competent, creative and complete leads in the Marshal group, leaving a massive gap that will be hard to fill. You've been a leading force in developing the more creative themed drives that so many people love. Climbs, ridges, extreme, distance - you've done it all, with massive aplomb and generating an incredible loyal following evidenced by the speed with which ANY drive to which your name was attached filled up. Keeping up with you, both literally and figuratively has been a challenge, and I have enjoyed every moment in the sand in your company (and beyond) since that first newbie, through your promotions and onto witnessing your excellence as a marshal. I wish I'd supported your drives anywhere near as many times as you have mine - I would have learned such a lot. The sand will continue to tremor as you approach it, sadly in the future, outside of Carnity. As with every aspect of your life, there is no doubt this will be a great success. Indeed, after the dark comes the light, after the rain comes the sun and new shoots sprout. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gaurav Posted January 4, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Really sad to see this happening, but we do understand that with time many things evolve. Thank you and congratulations @Lorenzo Candelpergher for being such a great offroader above all, who have the perseverance and determination to master the art of off-roading and managed to succeed with flying colors with an impossible size of Y62. You are a true example of driver attitude and skills makes all the difference in off-roading. Till date I have never seen anyone handling that big of beast with sheer perfection, control and extreme precision from technical terrain to monstrous dunes. And after you've change to Rubicon, you've become invincible, as rightly put above by Richard. Surely our path will cross again, till then drive safe and take care. 6 1 3 Let's root for each other & watch each other grow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Alain Canivet-Abikhalil Posted January 4, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 You were definitely one of the most challenging and motivating leader in this community. I remember having your back several times as second lead and I would always thing to myself I was lucky to get to watch your moves so closely ! So long my friend... 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
