Richard Franks Posted March 24, 2023 Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 @Fredericjust thinking ahead but if I normally deflate to 12 for soft sand what would you recommend for the expected variable terrain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frederic Posted March 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 Good Morning All ! Please find the convoy list for tomorrow here below: CONVOY FREDERIC @Richard Franks@DanielN@Juan R@Ron.P@Gary F@Rajat Verma@premindra rajaram@Mike M.@Joseph Sebastian@imranaasghar81 We will be using Channel 2 - 446.031 Mhz As this is a scenic drive, we will be using a lot of farm tracks, combined with wadis and a tiny bit of tarmac. I hope you understand this won't be a dune-bashing drive, but more of an exploration drive where we just enjoy the scenic terrains and mountain views. For that main reason, i would like you to all deflate to 15PSI and not lower, so we don't have a risk on tyre damage. We will put up our flags in the morning, but once we have crossed the main road and make our way to the wadis, you can remove your flag. We will be exiting in Asimah, a bit north of Masafi. After finishing the drive i highly recommend you explore Masafi a bit as it has nice shops, restaurants, and a 25dhs carwash if you need one See you soon ! 3 2 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further."

Joseph Sebastian Posted March 24, 2023 Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 Thanks @Fredericreally looking forward to this drive, missed one or two scenic drives in the past. Mostly as far as I have seen the scenic drives are Newbie drives, just wanted to ask the aspects which make this drive a Fewbie? (Real reason to ask is do I need my full concentration or can I invite my wife to join me 😆) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the most of the track last week and there are some sections where Newbies would have definitely struggled. For that reason I’ve put the level on FB. 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frederic Posted March 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 Good news to all waitlisted members ! @george charbel@Pacific@Andrei S@Misha Puskar@Rk ram@Stan@Chris Wing@Mark B@Hugo@Sebb CONVOY VARUN @Varun Mehndiratta has stepped up to lead a second convoy, leaving from the same starting point but 1 hour earlier so we dont have 20+ vehicles in the same area. So kindly confirm your attendance the coming hours, and acknowledge that 7AM starting time is fine. Do remember that this is a scenic drive and not a dunebashing drive, the aim is to enjoy the scenic views and terrain. I am sure you will all love it. You can use Channel 3 - 446.056 Mhz Have fun ! PS please deflate to around 15PSI and not lower to make sure you have no tyre damage from the road crossing and wadi part. Have fun ! 3 2 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
