Thank you for signing up ! Please find some notes below on the drive:

1. There could be fog in the early morning. Please be safe and don't rush. Leave the house a bit earlier if needed.

2. We will be using Walkie Talkie Radio Channel 4: 446.081 Mhz

3. The plan is an easy leisure drive with a few challenges built-in along the way. It will be more focused on long distance driving with good pace. Not very technical. 

@Arvindraj as you are joining us for your first club drive (MC completed), please bring a flag and radio. (if you do not have a radio yet, we can lend you one for this drive). I am sure you will enjoy this morning out  

Please also take some time today to watch the Newbie Briefing Video that was listed in the drive. It contains important information.

Once you reach the meeting point, you can start deflating your tyres to 14 psi if you have HT tyres, and around 11-12psi if you have AT tyres. Do not hesitate to approach me if you have any questions or doubts.

See you all tomorrow !

Looking forward to tomorrow’s drive for many reasons. Other than the fact that this will be my first Carnity drive after monthsss of absence, this will be the first drive where The White Rhino and The Black Raptor are in the same convoy 😎 @Emanuel

Not to mention that I missed driving with you @Frederic🤓
