The gentle breeze this morning invited us into the Murquab dunes, and we happily obliged. With a small yet very capable convoy we easily digested the multiple technical areas we came across, with only a handful of refusals and stucks. I had my eyes set on some large long range dunes nearby Lisaili towards the end, but at one point my car started overheating very quickly and when I stopped and @Dodi Syahdar came to the rescue we noticed the coolant was all gone. Quickly Dodi his friend found the culprit which was a loose heater core hose. Took us some time to bypass the heater core and refill the radiator but after that time was running out and we had to head to the exit. 
@Adam James you did great as SL today ! @Anirudh Dayma and @Yogesh Chaudhary rocking their Pajeros brilliantly, @Zubair with his new FJ toy driving effortlessly, @Jonny90 gliding the  Super Safari through its natural habitat, all the while @Dodi Syahdar was everywhere to help out where needed.

@Alex Hollands and his roaring Wrangler, and @Ashok chaturvedi surfing in the back of the convoy. A coherent team !

Thank you all for joining today, I promise next time we’ll be spending extra time on the long range dunes !

@Frederic thank you very much for an expertly led drive on Sunday morning at Murquab. Not sure if it was that we had a slightly shorter convoy than usual but I thought we all kept up a great pace and as a team had a very minor amount of stucks or refusals. Certainly keeps the adrenaline going when the dunes are receptive!

@Dodi Syahdar & @Ashok chaturvedi thank you as ever for the guidance and advise it’s gratefully received.

Great to meet you all.

Lookin forward to the next one already@Frederic
