Helle there 

I'll be driving a Black Jeep wrangler JK 

It's fitted for the desert and I have been out with a different group around 10 times. So I can confirm all requirements. 

Looking forward!

@Islam Soliman, @James Lovell wonderful drive indeed, excellent track mix chosen. Thoroughly enjoyed it. @Davie Chase, @Fabien Monleau thanks for covering the convoy so amazingly well.

This was a flowing drive. All were driving nice and fluidly. Will look forward to seeing you all again.

@Islam Soliman appreciate the acceptance to join quite late yesterday. 
Thanks once more to all to make this a memorable morning.

@Islam Solimantold us, at the briefing, that he could be the first one to get stacked. An unexpected pocket behind a dune and as a real Leader, he did what he said 😉Once again, I was relief not to be the first one 🤣

A quick recovery, beautifully managed by @Davie Chase and the convoy was back on track. Certainly helped by hard sand after the heavy rains and the professional lead of @Islam Soliman , this Newbie convoy drove perfectly well in between Lisali and Al Quadra, with few shoveling, leaving the Support Team almost useless 😭

I really enjoyed driving with you this morning and hope to drive with you again.

Have a lovely week 😉
