Popular Post Shaaz Sha Posted April 24, 2022 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted April 24, 2022 Hello, boys. I think we all had a good time in Sweihan today. It was a beautiful day today, and we were all gathered at the meeting point, eager to get our fill of adrenaline. We began at 6 a.m., half an hour late, waiting for daylight, and proceeded gently towards the huge dunes of Sweihan. The terrain was wonderful, with plenty of room for an Intermediate convoy to explore and flourish. The convoy was able to handle all of the hurdles, and there were no major snags or refusals. We didn't use any recovery gear today, and we didn't even get out of the car except for short breaks. We had a last-minute surprise before the start today with @Asif Hussain joining the team.Thank you so much, @Asif Hussain bhai. It was a pleasure to have you on board. We kept cruising, conquering every dune on our way, with lots of sideys, lengthy climbs, and incredibly soft sand patches to put our skills to the test, and each one of you did a fantastic job today. At roughly 8.15 a.m., @MMansoor car overheated, and we decided to take a break to assess the situation beneath a tree shade beside a large bowl. Every one of us got a fair shot at attempting that huge bowl. We decided to proceed further after filling the coolant in @MMansoor car, but the vehicle overheated again. we decided to exit him at the nearest exit .It was 9 a.m. by the time we arrived at the pylon track, and @Asif Hussain also chose to exit with @MMansoor. The rest of the convoy agreed to continue for another half an hour , and after tackling a few more enormous dunes and sideys, our sweihan expedition came to an end at another pylon track . Thank you @Asif Hussain for participating in our effort and for all of your assistance, support, and guidance. It's great to hear you had a good time with us on your backyard drive 😄. Thank you @Ranjan Dasfor your excellent second lead in the second session, and thanks to @Pacific and @Looper for their support...Congratulations to @Gilbert Khalil on your first IM drive! Thank you @Waqas Parvez, @Vaibhav, @Rajiv Sam, @Anoop Nair, @Naveen Raj, @MMansoorfor joining the drive and for making it an epic one. @MMansoor, sad that you had out exit and hope your car gets well soon. 😄.

Popular Post Vaibhav Posted April 24, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 24, 2022 Wow. Just So Impressed with Sweihan. First time to this most talked dunes and @Shaaz Shayou made it the best experience. Agree with @Anoop Nairworth every penny waking up so early. @Asif Hussainit was nice meeting you for the first time. Everyone drove so well though the sand was soft and challenging. @Ranjan Das Experience spoke for itself and you drove amazing. I am sure once you have the car checked you will capture the big dune. So keep us posted on the issue. Can help other Jeepers in future. @Gilbert Khalil and @Waqas ParvezLoved following you guys. thank you for keeping the pace all the time @Rajiv Sam we have drove together in so many drives and you have majority time followed me. Hope i did not keep the sand churned for you. @Anoop NairStock jeep is such a challenge to drive but you driving skills were top notch. @Naveen Raj2nd drive with you and you were flawless. @MMansoorif it was not for the car trouble i am sure you would have enjoyed it. but there is more to come and you do not have to be sorry. This could happen to anyone. Good things is that you drove back home safely without any issues. @Pacific and @Looper thank you for supporting the drive. Amazing convey and looking forward to see you soon on the sand. 6 2 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Waqas Parvez Posted April 24, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 24, 2022 Thank you, @Shaaz Sha, for an amazing drive. I didn't get much sleep last night because we had to get up at 3:30 a.m. to start our drive. There was no warm-up and the first dune was almost 100 meters long. The drive was non-stop of high dunes twice the size of Iftar or super bowl. I've driven in Liwa before but it was nothing compared to the high-speed drive we did today ,the terrain was beautiful with no cross tracks While we waited for @MMansoor car to cool down, we had a great time with all of the drives and laughed a lot, while @Ranjan Das @Looper @Pacific, and @Gilbert Khalilcontinued to try to climb the mighty dune. @Asif Hussain Thank you for your second lead, it was a pleasure meeting you for the first time. @Vaibhav we had been looking forward to this drive, and it much exceeded our expectations, you drove beautifully @Rajiv Sam@Naveen Raj@Anoop Nair @Gilbert Khalil@MMansoor@Ranjan Dasit was pleasure driving with you all it was simply a flawless drive @Looper@Pacific Thank you guys as usual for the support.

Popular Post Looper Posted April 24, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 24, 2022 This is the place where I had my first Swihan drive experience on 9th October 2020 in fact my 2nd Newbie drive and the day when @Asif Hussain was promoted as Marshal. Today is another day to remember and a great showing by all. The first half was spent climbing tall dunes and being thrilled at sight of those mighty dunes. We visited a couple of huge bowls where were tried to climb. In the first one I was not very successful will do it next time, but was able to conquer the second one. There are always going to be many many tall dunes to conquer and never ever a good idea to try everything in the same drive and do mistakes. In an intermediate drive there is nothing much to do as a support, since everyone is quite accomplished drivers, especially in the sweep, all I was doing was follow a churned up track and take some pics. The pics I put in the gallery will never do justice to what we experienced today. Thanks a lot @Shaaz Sha for this magnificent drive;, @Asif Hussain blessing with your presence and partial 2nd lead and showing how to climb those dunes for the rest of us; @Pacific in the center froward enjoying yourself. It was unfortunate to see that mighty Patrol of @MMansoor get hot, hope it gets fixed soon - and keep us updated on the causes. @Gilbert Khalil you for sure had a great day in your first Intermediate drive. It was a pleasure driving with you all @Ranjan Das, @Waqas Parvez, @Vaibhav, @Rajiv Sam, @Anoop Nair, @Naveen Raj and @MMansoor. 6 1 5 don't drive like its your last one.

MMansoor Posted April 25, 2022 Report Share Posted April 25, 2022 @Shaaz Sha This was my 1st Drive in Sweihan with you. I was already excited and I did not even sleep night before to join the drive. As always you have exceeded the expectations in the drive and it was a fast and smooth drive. We had good amount of climbs and clean tracks. I cant wait for another drive, since I could not complete it because of my overheating issue. @Asif Hussain Thanks for your amazing second lead and helping me to fix the over heating issue until we exited. @Pacific and @Looper thanks for your support as CF and SW. I was happy to see @Ranjan Das, @Waqas Parvez, @Vaibhav, @Rajiv Sam, @Anoop Nair, @Naveen Raj,@Gilbert Khalilagain and hope to drive with you soon. Lastly, thank you all for your patience and support during my car breakdown. 🙂 Now my car is in the garage, seems like there are no leaks. Expecting issues with thermostat or blockage. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
