Hi DP, hope you and all our fellow drivers got through yesterday ok. Unfortunately, my Jeep took some damage so I’m going to have to withdraw until I can get it looked at.

Thanks for letting me know @Ben Lee - Hope not  major issues ! See you soon in future drives !!

Hi All,

Due to recent heavy rain in the UAE and waterlogged conditions the desert terrain is currently tricky with muddy conditions, broken ridges, and hidden pockets, which isn't ideal for a safe adventure.

Hence, I am canceling this weekend's drive, look forward to seeing you all soon on the next one. @Joji varghese @Faraz94 @Shiju Raju
