We request every member that joins this drive to go through the below information and strictly follow these guidelines, etiquettes and responsibilities.

MUST READ AND COMPLY

DRIVE DETAILS

Level:  Fewbie and above

When:  4th March 2023, Saturday

Meeting time:  6:30 AM - Sharp (Without any exceptions)

Meeting Point:  https://goo.gl/maps/cV6h7wBMa7DobRVE9

Action Plan:  Starting from Al Batayeh exploring the northern part of the Emirates into Ras al Khaimah. Don't expect high climbs or crazy dune bashing. It will be a leisurely exploration of the desert, with some very scenic portions with mountains in the background, and a lot of desert life to observe. We will use tracks from time to time, but all your sand driver skills and awareness will be required to cross some soft untouched dunes.

The drive will end in RAK.

Approximate finish time: 11:00 AM

Type of Car: Any proper 4x4 with front and back tow hooks and 8-10 inches of ground clearance.

What to bring along: Loads of water, snacks (for yourself), smiles, enthusiasm and willingness to learn.

Recommended off-road gears: Walkie-talkie radio and off-road flag (MANDATORY), plus tire deflator, tire pressure gauge, compressor, walkie-talkie radio, off-road flag, shovel, first-aid kit and fire extinguisher.

As you can see, we have a long waitlist for the drive on Saturday morning, and unfortunately, I will not be able to accommodate everyone. I will take max 2 cars in addition to the limit (1+10+2). Check your agenda and if you are not sure to attend, please let me know or remove your RSVP, to avoid having empty spot on Saturday morning. 

So currently @Bashar Beasha @Stumpy Paj @Abdul Basit Khan @Juan R @Joseph Raju @Gary F @Glenn W @Sayed Bilal @Frans M @Ahmad Nerat confirmed attendees. No need to confirm again, just let me know if you cannot make it.

@Bravoecho @Stan Waitlist #1 and #2 for a first weekend drive accepted. Please confirm you are still available and interested.

Thank you for your understanding

@Mike M., you are next in line for the wait list. I can add you if you are still interested. Please confirm

Thanks for consideration @JeromeFJ but I am opting out from driving this week as I sprained my hand yesterday night. Would love to drive with you soon though as it has been a while! Thanks again
