Faqa's Foggy Flavours...

It was a wonderful morning, seeing everyone arriving on time and putting up the flags while the sun was rising. It was still a bit foggy but as soon as we started driving the veil started to lift and before us we could see the mighty dunes appear :) 

The plan was to "brush" alongside Faqa and not venture in too deep, as we had a long track ahead of us if we wanted to exit  on the Bab Al Shams area. Due to the construction at Solar Park i rather keep away from there for the time being.

A few minutes into the drive we had a pop-out, and this was also a reminder to all of us that the sand was still compact in most areas and that we needed to steer gently and avoid sharp turns. This was easily fixed and we resumed the drive quickly. 

We came across technical sections, big long range dunes, and practiced some sidesloping and the occasional ridge-ride practice. Everyone did so amazingly well !

The Patrol guys @Kishore Venkat @Yesu Yarlagadda @Eli Zandro Hamoy were gliding over the terrain effortlessly, just like the Xterra friends @Mohammed Sirajuddin and @Zulfikhar Naiyar

Overall we had very little refusals or stucks, so @Srikumar could turn up the radio and enjoy the scenery in the back ! 

@Rajeevan Vickneswaran was an excellent support in the middle of the convoy, it's good seeing you back in the sand buddy !

@Federico De Chirico was my second lead, and did that brilliantly. His buddy @Federico Galbieri was doing a shakedown of his brand new FJ Extreme. Congrats buddy it's a fantastic offroad vehicle and from now on there will be no limits to what the car can do under your guidance.

@Amr Aydin, hailing from Abu Dhabi, you drove superb. Great to see you with us in Dubai !

@Emanuel with the silver arrow Pajero, you drove amazing as well. Must be the experiences from driving in Canadian snow while steering clear of any deer 😁

@Eduardo sos the FJ is a fantastic offroader and its good to see you're finding your way in it drive after drive. Well done !

@Gerrit Bus made the drive "instagrammable". Thanks for joining us with the great looking Gladiator !!

@Alfred Alinazar you had the honor of driving in front of Sri, i hope you were able to keep him from playing around too much at the back. 😁Well done !!

 

@Nadeem Ansari if you join Carnity Offroad Club for the first time, you will need to sign up for an Absolute Newbie drive first. We have those every weekend in Al Qudra area. After completing that drive, you will be a Newbie level offroader and can start signing up for Newbie level drives. Take some time to read your introduction email with the various articles. Don't be afraid to post your questions on the forum if you have any. 

See you all in the sand soon again !
