Frederic Posted November 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Dear Members @Xavi Moyano@Andrei S@Abhilash Kottakkal@Shahid Mehmood@Haneef Thayyil@Rafey Hashmi@Dan S Thanks for signing up ! I wanted to let you know that i've moved my meeting point just a bit further down at Faqa Truck Road itself, as this weekend there is an Dubai Baja Challenge which will mostlikely mean that many parts of Qudra and Faqa will be fenced off. New meeting point: https://maps.app.goo.gl/591afzyayHPUXmVWA See you all soon ! 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further."

Dan S Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Dear Frederic @Frederic, I am coming from Abu Dhabi and I just wanted to confirm with you, if this ADNOC station is the closest one to the meeting point considering the fact that I will come from AD, I do not see any other one with low impact on travelling time. https://maps.app.goo.gl/RkZXYH5GTrPqNuc87 I will be looking forward to your feedback, Many thanks!

If you are coming from Abu Dhabi i would assume taking the E11, followed by E14 is better. In that scenario you will have the Al Samha ADNOC on the E11. 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further."

Understood, thank you Frederic, I think I can also follow E20 up to the Nahil Adnoc right before coming from Lane 1821 between the farms up to the meeting point. I believe this one is closer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
