Looper Posted May 23 Author Share Posted May 23 @Prithvi Raj, @Shiju Raju, @Stumpy, @khlief, @Sandeep Nayar, @Andrew John Melvill, @Zak_, @Anoop Nair, @Danny G The last time: When we did this drive three months ago; it was a Fewbie Plus drive. It had rained few days earlier so the dunes/terrain were quite firm. It was a fast and fun drive, please check out below video from that drive. The terrain: This time however the dunes will be mostly dry. We all know that Tawi Nazwa - Big Red area is a favorite among desert safari guys and traverse these dunes so often that it is full of cross tracks. The preparation: Take adequate rest and arrive a bit early so that you don't rush into getting ready in the last minutes. You will need full concentration in this drive. The expectation: This drive will be slightly faster than you are used to till now. It will also involve a lot of short sharp turns and loops among the dunes. We expect everyone to adhere to the briefing that will be given in the start of the drive. We won't waste a lot of time - a quick drive and an early exit is what you should expect. till we loop in the dunes; you all take care... 4 don't drive like its your last one.
