A warm welcome to our first and second time drivers with the club: @Kirill K @Steffi @Neha Jain @Oussama @Yury @Jason M @Shary.

You all did really well for your first drives in an area with much soft sand, cross-tracks, and with other users moving around and through our convoy. Thanks for a wonderful drive @Davie Smooth_Operator. Always a pleasure to drive with you. Great working with you @Mark B @Ishak, and @Imran Asghar.

See you all on the sand next time.

Dear Desert Wanders, @Jason M, @Nathan, @Shary, @Dipu Francis,  @ArSaLaN, @Kirill K, @karim hamandi,  @Steffi, @Neha Jain, @Vijaya Kumar Doppa, @Ishak, @Mark B, @Emanuel, @Imran Asghar, @Abdullah A., @essam ibrahim, @Sam Selim, @Yuryand @Ossama firstly thank you all for being on time and ready for the briefing, this allows us more time to play in the sandpit

for our absolute Newbies @Kirill K, @Steffi, @Neha Jain, @Yury and @Oussama, you guys drove amaziningly well even though we encountered a lot of cross tracks which made the going tuff in places. very few refusals and stucks between you all, I really hope that this drive has gotten you as enthused about the desert as we all are at carnity. The journey is just beginning for you all and it is a wonderful journey full of learnings, not just learning your car, but learning new skills, honing your driving style to combat the most difficult of terrains, learning how to self recover with confidence and also learning, a few tips and tricks from a mechanical standpoint as we often have to much in to fix an issue here. As you saw yesterday with the double pop out we suffered at the end of the drive.

The rest of the convoy drove just as well making it a pleasure being out in the sand with you guys.

Great second lead from @Ishak, appreciate your patients as we dealt with the couple of refusals and stucks we had.

My two Center forwards were amazing as always thanks a lot @Mark B and @Emanuel for your continued support and effort during the drive to get the stucks and refusals sorted quickly and professionally.

Lastly but certainly not least our sweep @Imran Asghar great to have you in the convoy as always mate, I do enjoy the banter on the radio and great job sweeping and assisting the guys at the back, amazing job mate thanks again.

 

For those that want to relive the experience here is a short video of our trip.

It was an absolutely fantastic experience, impeccably organized, with careful oversight provided to the newcomers.

I am deeply grateful to the entire Carnity Team and all fellow riders!

[Steffi]

I can only echo the sentiment - it was such a great first drive - good pace, lots of learnings and meeting like-minded drivers. I really felt comfortable and in a safe space thanks to you @Davie Smooth_Operator and the entire support team @Mark B @Emanuel @Imran Asghar. Thank you all for making these drives happen. 

I now am eager to see the schedule for next weekend; can’t wait to get out into the sand again.
