Hi My Name is Ebrahim Ismail, I’ve done the Beginer course with Gaurav last week (Excellent Instructor and Experience) I have subscribed to Carnity off-road club (Annual Subscription) 

I understand drive would be live at 7pm only however I’m presently getting n error “To Join Carnity Drives you must be an active subscriber to Monthly/Annual membership” not sure if this is simply due to drive not being active yet or due to a hiccup on my account. As this would be my first newbie drive would not want to miss out

 

Thanks

Hi everyone,

 

I have a 2006 toyota land cruiser in pacific blue

I used to frequent the desert before but my 10 year sabbatical has rendered me quite rusty and lacking confidence.
I can confirm that I have front and rear hooks.
I am missing a radio and safety flag at the moment but planning to procure these items by EoD.  
 

Thanks,
