Dear dune surfers!

welcome to the drive @Imteeaz @Mahesh_ @Mahmoud Taha..

Drive plan is that there is no plan…

let me know the points in Advance or at the meeting point.. https://maps.app.goo.gl/odtqTrKpDKzJ3KLJ8?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy

Alternatively, 

I am proposing that you guys give a starting point within the region bounded by Nahel in north, al saad in south, sweihan in west and Al Ain airport in the east… see below…

see you soon in sand!

@GauravSoni Apologies mate - I will need to remove myself from this drive.

Our office has signed up for a competition this weekend against other companies couple of weeks ago, and this event slipped through the cracks.

I understand that this will most probably mean that the drive will be cancelled; @Mahesh_ @Mahmoud Taha  please accept my apologies for being the bearer of bad news today.

Sorry.
 

[Mahmoud Taha]

all the best dear, no issues at all.

[GauravSoni]

@Mahesh_ @Mahmoud Taha since we are now three drivers for the convoy, the drive was destined to be cancelled however myself and @DP1011have agreed to merge the drive and make it a FB+ drive near the Al Ain airport. 
M sure that you guys are ok with that since it’s better to have a drive than no drive! In case otherwise let me know…
