Benjamin Posted April 20, 2023 Report Share Posted April 20, 2023 @Varun Mehndiratta great drive today! Congrats to your first 100 drives and to many more! everyone drove extremely well with a few stucks and refusals the convoy of 14 members managed to get out of the desert surprisingly well. even from the back the track wasn’t as churned up as I was expecting. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Varun Mehndiratta Posted April 23, 2023 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted April 23, 2023 Thanks all for joining in for the drive. Was an interesting day on sand - a perfect start to this long weekend. Bright sun at 6am greeted us all at starting point and within first 15-20 min multiple refusals as we crossed the initial soft patches were good indication that summers are officially here. As was the plan, the day was about attacking slip face, criss crossing through ridges and challenging our maneuvering capabilities through this tricky area. It surely wasn’t typical my style drive - with climbs, fast pace etc, but then that’s what I wanted to try for my 100th and was pretty satisfying experience, thanks to you all. The whole convoy did amazingly well - ofcourse we had our fair share of winching, tugs and shoveling but that was very much expected through this terrain. @Ishak and @Felix Obst had a tough task of sl at hand and both did superb throughout. I had to make regular adjustments - through soft patches in early phase, crazy ridges during mid and never ending vegetation at end. You both handled the instructions with precision. @DP1011 @Gertjan @Looper and@Beide Worku were perfect platoon leaders ensuring we entered and exited Safe. Thanks for all your support and keeping this long convoy togather. @Benjamin was really good to see you out of your car with your shovel in hand at every refusal and stuck - thanks for the same, I hope I could fulfill my promise of a thorough workout through the drive. 😀 @Bashar Beasha you were amazing for the 1st fbplus drive. It was a challenging route and apart from well expected couple of refusals, you were well in control of your vehicle. As always @Patrick van der Loo TJ had its smooth sail through the drive and though the pace today was never expected to that of a sprinter @Gary F sandrunner had its own fun - sailing through ridges smoothly. Our new Int drivers @KAMALIO and @Ignacio Quindós handled it all very nicely. Ofcourse apart from that phone fiasco @Jaro Tuzinsky new FJ was just sailing through the terrain. Thanks again all, hope everyone is having a nice vacation and looking forward to see you sometime soon. 9 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bashar Beasha Posted April 23, 2023 Report Share Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) EDIT: I just noticed that I already commented on the drive on Thursday 🤣🤣 But no harm in thanking you again Thanks @Varun Mehndiratta. I didn’t know what to expect of this drive. Had a couple of refusals at the beginning but your tips were really helpful and made a difference. Great ridge riding exercise.
