@Sunil Mathew @Lukas @Pascal @Brett Eicher @Joji varghese @Rajiv Sam

Thank you all for participating this drive. It was wonderful meeting with Nahel dunes again. This was my first leading for the new season after a long brake of 4 months. My muscles were a bit lazy but you did it great so I am aligned back to my path...

@Sunil Mathew on 2nd lead saved our convoy from falling into dark pits many times. Thank you for your great leading!

@Lukas made a great beginning in his Fewbie journey. The level of the drive was slightly higher than regular Fewbies because of the terrain and extremely soft sand. You started from difficult so the upcomings will be funnier for you I think. Now you know all basics and tricks for the new actions; criss-crossing, ridge-riding, long hill climbing .... you did them all very well. Enjoy your new rank!

@Pascal and @Brett Eicher ; great controlling guys! It was amazing watching you rounding in deep bowls without any single fishtailing. You are doing great, but most importantly, very safe while dancing on the dunes. Keep it up like this, but don't forget to be careful against overconfidence in further levels. Looking forward to your promotions...

@Joji varghese you proved once more that XT-offroad is the best toy that one may have in the UAE deserts. Excellent show brother!

... and my friend @Rajiv Sam. Thank you for coming and supporting my drive buddy! You kept the convoy safe and sound all the time. See you in the next ones!
