  • Gaurav changed the title to Morning Fewbie Desert Drive - Exploring the dunes less travelled at Lisali - Dubai - 3 Jul 2022

Dear Sand Sailors

Thanks for RSVPing for the drive. Really good to see some usual suspects and some new faces. Plus we have some new first time FBs as well - going to be fun 😈😈

Been a crazy week at work for me and i am really looking forward to release some steam on Long range dunes around Lisali - .so get ready to rumble !!👍

Drive Plan - Very simple and easy - will enter the sand around camel track area, quickly (atleast i hope so) rush through some basic technical area and then we will let ourselves get lost into the beautiful long range dunes of Lisali. 

Some FAQs for our drive

When do we meet? - Sharp 5am without exception. Anyone one min late will need to bring in a Jerry can full of 10ltr Super grade petrol for the lead (yeah my Jeep doesn't like the taste of that cheap special or regular fuel 😂) and 20ltr.for  @GauravSoni who is hoping that he gets at least a tank full in lieu of giving up his sleep to join with us. Thanks @GauravSoni Anyone two or more min late will be sent back home (of course after delivering the Jerry can and 10 ltr petrol each for whole convoy). 

Where do we meet? Lisali camel track, drop pin will be updated tomo afternoon 

What we plan to achieve- Achieve? Dude It's a weekend so let's just chill and sail through the sand, far away from hustle of achieving something... Yeah, yeah you will learn as well 😴

Where do we exit - Who cares, somewhere around. Hopefully in Dubai. 🧭🧭

What time do we plan to exit - i plan to exit by 9am. When you will exit - depends on you 👿😂😂

What should I bring to the drive? Lots of energy, water, gear, snack for yourself and MASK

😷😷 <- yeah that's how it looks like, And yeah Smiles (but won't it be hidden under the mask🤔).

Any prep before the drive required? Take lots of rest, stay hydrated, ensure your vehicle is in perfect shape and above all ensure you set the alarm right   it's really a lame excuse that my alarm didnt ring - it always does we are the one who miss it 😂😂

In case your plan changes, please advice well in time. And in case of any issue feel free to call me - my no is 050 4430 882

So looking forward to see you all on Sunday. @Zulfikhar Naiyar

 @RiaanJH @Stan Hassett @Jonny90 @takeshi sobue @salah2u @Ashok chaturvedi @Sam KK @Tom B @KAMALIO

And as at @Carnity some ppl really care, so after reading my post and concerned with your safety (many who joined my last convoy two weeks back in Lisali are still trying to find their way out) Dr @M.Seidam has offered to join the drive 😂😂

Welcome onboard doc. Looking forward to see you.
