Looking forward to the drive @Mehmet Volga. We ended last weeks' Fewbie plus drive at the same meeting/starting point as your drive - the area we used to cross coming from the tar road, to get onto the track (crossing the cycle track) has turned into a large swamp with all the rain over the last weeks! We basically re- inflated right next to (parallel to) the cycle track, after looping on a side track. Just FYI as I wouldn't have known if I wasn't there on Saturday. 👍

Thank you @Gregory for the info. Yes, I also saw that pond this Sunday in our Fwb+ drive. If still there, we can go around it and meet at the point just before the fence gate. Seems it will be sunny the whole this week so maybe such ponds and muds will mainly be gone until our drive. 

Thanks buddy 👍

Hi @Mahmoud Taha. I have to remove your RSVP from this drive as your current level is Newbie. You can join any newbie level drive instead of this. Please check for the "Newbie" titled drives to RSVP...

@Davie Chase @Daniel Rodas @Gregory @Werno @ShereenMK @Tareck @Daniel Yang @Alphin Aloor @Zixuan Huang - Charlie @marks @Dodi Syahdar

good evening everybody

here is the convoy order for tomorrow;

We will be using channel#4 on the radio

There is a big muddy pond at our meeting point. go around it to your right to reach the meet point as shown below;

We will have a relatively longer track to reach to Faqa so we will try to keep a higher pace to finish it on time. But depending on the performance of the convoy, a slight delay could be expected around 20-30 min though we will try to avoid. Just to consider...

See you all in the morning. Do not get stuck in that muddy pond. Play the best "Mannish Boy" song by "Muddy Waters" on the way coming...

It was a fabulous drive today, long and high dunes ( I havent rode them in months!!), and technical ones at the second half.

Thank you @Mehmet Volga @marks for leading this fabulous, and @Dodi Syahdar @Werno for the flawless support.

The entire convoy did pretty well, we had minimum refusals all self recovered, and we successfully reached Faqa without surpries and delay. 

Thought I heard Dodi's Raptor in the back, but it turned out to be @Daniel Rodas 's "Rap - ajero"

Great drive yesterday - appreciate that @Mehmet Volga

Thanks to @Dodi Syahdar @marksand @Werno for the general support, and assistance with my (first) pop-out, which was promptly sorted so the convoy could get moving again. 

Until the next time..
