Afternoon Fewbie Desert Drive - Quick fix in Badayer - Dubai - 05 Mar 2025

[Alex M]

Epic first Fewbie drive full of adventure (+misadventure) for me and pushing the car a bit more this time.

Loads and loads of important new technical moments, many lessons learned, and I really appreciate all the support and advise from everyone, especially from @Ale Vallecchi and @Glenn W with the cresting incident, and fixing the pop out.

Definitely a big moment of gratitude from joining this club.
