Hey @Davie Chase I need to drop for an appointment.

[Davie Chase]

Dear Desert Nomads, @Emanuel @Issam Atra @Cole bertasso @Ishak @Gautam Banka @Sreenath G and @Lalaji we will be using Ch4  446.081 our convoy for tomorrow will be as follows:

Looking forward to seeing you all bright and early at Lisalli

[Emanuel]

Woohoo, S/L !!! 

Congrats @Davie Chase on passing 100 drives

[Gautam Banka]

Apologies for missing out the drive today. Late night party is a recipe for disaster 😅

[Davie Chase]

Dear Desert Nomads, @Emanuel @Issam Atra @Cole bertasso @Ishak and @Lalaji  great way to finish off my drive weekend, although we had a few issues at the start, we overcame them with smiles and banter to get us all moving off in the right direction (towards the sand). Due to a later start than planned we had to adjust our route but still managed to tackle some nice technical dunes until turning up the heat on the mid to long range dunes which you all handled admirably.

We did have some spectators during a couple of stucks but they did not offer to help lol although did shout encouragement through roars and grunts  

Special shout out to @Emanuel for an excellent second lead, you did an awesome job mate to keep everyone on a nice smooth track, thanks and appreciated.

 

A big thankyou to @Lalaji for sweeping the convoy, you did an amazing job of keeping me informed every step of the way.

 

I hope you all enjoyed the drive as much as I did and I hope that you all have a great rest of your weekend and look forward to seeing you all again very soon in the sand

 

 

[Emanuel]

Always a pleasure to drive with you @Davie Chase and thanks for the compliments. Good driving with you again @Issam Atra and all the best in the DCT @Cole bertasso.

The morning started with a wonderful coffee at the fuel station before reaching the starting point, and it turned out that the only tank filled was my own and forgot to fill up the vehicle. I couldnt be embarrased enough when I announced just before entering that the tank was empty. 

Thanks my sand brothers for waiting out the embarassement for me. 

The drive route was taken through its paces, and I could feel @Davie Chase had decided to give us all some lessons which maybe was left back from last Sunday's drive in the same place where we were unable to move in rhythm due to frequent stucks. 

@Emanuel your second lead was great bro. @Cole bertasso Hope to see you regularly.

@Issam Atra@Ishak its always nice to meet you both. You are both doing great with each of your drives, We three have been gaining experience up literally together and feels 'homie' to see each other. Hope to keep levelling up safely and make our mentors proud. 

I had a front cam installed, the videos are there, but somehow couldnt transfer it out. Once done will share them, hopefully should make a good view.

@Gautam Banka, @Sreenath G You did miss a good learning drive guys.
