Frederic Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Well, we didn’t find any bunnies this morning. What we did found was a group of enthusiasts that were eager to explore some nice virgin areas of Qudra and beyond. Throughout the drive we were able to keep a good pace and only had a handful of refusals, and some excellent self recovery skills by @Yaseen87 and wonderful support from @Anoop Nair. All of you drove very well today ! After having enjoyed the Qudra area, we crossed the road into Al Hathmah and the plan was to make this drive into a nice loop where we would exit at the Love Lakes. Unfortunately @Thian his Jeep hit a bump somewhere after coming off a dune which resulted in an overheating issue shortly after and upon opening the bonnet we noticed the cooling fluid was almost entirely gone and the engine bay was covered in pink coolant. The only option was to disengage the electronic parking brake with the engine off (we had to check in the operator manual), and tow the car out back to the road. As we were on the last part of the drive, we all exited together. I wanted to thank you all for the great drive this morning and the support from all of you ! @Thian i hope the damage is not to severe and you can join us soon again. Take care and enjoy the rest of the weekend ! 3 1 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yaseen87 Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Another fantastic morning in the sand. Witnessing @Frederic casually climbing and crossing dunes towing @Thian’s cherokee behind him was a sight to behold. Many thx to all who helped shoveling me out of the sticky situations and special thx to @Anoop Nair for pulling me out nice and clean from a hellish pothole I was sinking deeper in! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignacio Quindós Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Hi All, Another amazing experience with a bit of everything, and lots of opportunities to learn from. Thanks Frederic and Anoop for your lead and support throughout the drive. Really impressed about the driving skills of Frederic towing a car!!! We could have completed the session without sweating!! Following some pictures of the day and the three-step recovery of Yaseen. Looking forward to driving again soon!! Muchas gracias!! 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignacio Quindós Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Yaseen, the videos of your recovery are too heavy to post them here. If you are interested in having them, let me know and I’ll share them via wetransfer. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
