Hi Jermoe,

yes that will be my first drive with Carnity, however i did many drives before with different groups before. 

I have only Desert off road experience, not as a leader, Marshall or even a sweeper, but i know the rules and following the instructions and group leader. 

I do have front and rear towing points, have towing tools as well.

i do have flag, deflator, and compressor.

i do have Motorola Walkie-Talkie frequency 400- 470.

Thank you for arranging this drive and looking for fun, safe drive with you guys. see you tomorrow.

Hope you guys have fun! 🤩

I am really sorry but I have a family emergency and need to cancel tomorrow. I hate to do this in the last minute but if it wasn't a emergency I would not do it. Thank you for understanding.

@JeromeFJ I’m setting off shortly. But I could not read the convoy order in your message. Looks like the attached file did not work? Not sure if anyone else has this problem. Anyway, I guess we can clarify order in the briefing.

No problem, we will go through the convoy order before entering the sand together 👍
