Dear desert wanders, @Pascal and @Zulfikhar Naiyar as you guys may have noticed there are only two of you signed up for the drive, this is the minimum requirement for a carnity driver. Therefore, I wanted to reach out to both of you to gauge your intended participation. If either one of you drop out or is a no show on the morning of the drive we will not be able to move off and will have to cancel. I am more than happy to lead the drive with just the two of you, I just need to know that we will indeed have a convoy :) please reply to this thread at your earliest convenience so we can make plans :) for Saturday thanks in advance.

Good Morning Desert Wanders @Ishak @Pascal and @Zulfikhar Naiyar really looking forward to the drive tomorrow in this beautiful part of the Abu Dhabi desert. We will sort the convoy order out in the morning and throw in a few twists and turns since we have a small convoy. We will be using Radio Ch4 - 446081.

Look forward to seeing you all bright and breezy tomorrow morning :)

Good afternoon intrepid  Desert Wanders @Ishak @Pascal and @Zulfikhar Naiyar thank you all for showing up on time this morning and joining me for todays Fb+ adventures in this beautiful part of the Abu Dhabi desert. 
you guys all drove fantastically well with only three stucks including my own ridge cresting (pics in the Gallery). We had a little bit of everything today, from super soft white sand to technicals and some mid to long range dunes. 
A big thank you to my three S/L’s @Ishak @Pascal and @Zulfikhar Naiyar you guys did a fantastic job each and everyone of you as I cycled you through the S/L position. Not forgetting my three Center forwards  @Ishak @Pascal and @Zulfikhar Naiyaras well as my three sweeps @Ishak @Pascal and @Zulfikhar Naiyar you all played a blinder in these roles lol :):):):) 

@Ishak for first time in the sweep role you did great job well done mate, now you need to sign up for DCT.

I hope you all enjoyed being cycled through the positions, it is something that we don’t do often but is great fun when convoy size allows.

We covered just over 66km in 2 hrs 45 minutes (moving time) in fact it was further than that as I forgot to hit record as we left the starting point, so nearly 70 Kim’s, fastest moving speed nearly 52 kph, That is amazing and testament to how well you guys drove.

Thanks again for a magic Saturday morning in the sand, have a great weekend and see you all again real soon in the dunes.

Hi @Davie Chase, thank you very much for leading the drive through the beautiful Fayah desert. I enjoyed a lot of the time, it was like in the Ace Combat game following the jet plane up and down. and the most important is the team work shown by @Zulfikhar Naiyar and @Pascal thanks for shoveling 😅😅👍🏼👍🏼

Thank you so much for the amazing drive @Davie Chase 

It was a fun filled fast paced roller coaster drive. 
After the initial difficult angle recovery it was pretty much smooth sailing. 
Though my AC failed, the weather was lovely. Had to drive back with windows down.🥹

The position shuffling was another great addition. 
Nice meeting you @Pascal good to catchup after a while @Ishak  

See you next time in the sand.
