Popular Post JeromeFJ Posted April 16, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 16, 2022 Thank you @Islam Soliman, for sharing the drive with me today and supporting my first shared lead. It was an amazing experience to have the dunes wide open in front of me, and to draw a line for the convoy ! And a big thank you to all the Leads, Marshall’s, and Support who guided me up to this point. The area was offering various configurations, technical portions, high dunes, wide open portions with some bushes, a few trees for a break in the shade, some camels and gazelles. Very few existing tracks, no other convoy in sight, perfect conditions for exploring. After a few stucks at the beginning, (including a twisted Silverado !) and a pop out rapidly sorted, the convoy was performing really well even if some of the crests were challenging for the long trucks. We had a few deep bowls, nice ridges to ride, a few steep descends, and remote sand valleys to discover. On the way back, finding a way against the tall slip faces was challenging but all drivers were focused, avoiding to get stuck in the soft sand, and we reached the sabkha and the tarmac road without issue. Great support from @Rob S from the middle of the convoy helping in the recoveries with very clear guidance, and perfect sweep from @Imteeaz, who had the additional challenge to pass in the tracks of 3 heavy trucks. @Islam Soliman @RiaanJH @DP1011 @Pieter Potgieter @Patrick van der Loo @Rob S @Awais Zuberi @Nathan @Mark D @Imteeaz, thank you a great team spirit, and for joining that drive that was very special for me. See you soon for the next ones ! @Rob S your battery was kind enough to wait for the exit to die, perfect example of the British politeness! I hope it was sorted out without too much troubles. 5 2 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Rob S Posted April 16, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 16, 2022 Today was the day that 100% confirmed that I picked the right group in joing Carnity. Good and clear briefing as ever from @Islam Soliman. Gym work out shoveling done early on, then into a nice rythem following the tracks setout by @JeromeFJ . Driven with you a few times now and fantastic to be in the convoy for your first shared lead. A calming voice on the radio, clear instructions and great tracks chosen. I don't often take passengers but today I had 2, so of all the days to break down today was not it. Huge thankyou to @Islam Soliman @JeromeFJ @Imteeaz @Awais Zuberi @Patrick van der Loo @Mark D for the team spirit, staying with us till we got to the main road. Thanks to @Nathan for the very humble American tow and taking my passengers back home safely! The Toyota Prado is already fixed and we look forward to seeing you all in the desert again soon! 6 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
