@Kirill K this is a Fewbie Plus level drive. Hence I will have to remove you from the drive. In case you have recently applied for promotion, let’s wait till it is reflected on the starts - we will find a way back in.

Hi all! 

 

@Looper I'm really sorry but I have to retire myself from this one. Something impredictable came and I cannot go to the drive. I was really excited for my first FB+ drive with you, but unfortunately can't be tomorrow. 

 

Hope to see you all soon.

Let's meet on time to have a quick  twisty windy drive tomorrow morning. As usual we all be on Ch 2.

Request all members who will participate to install Garmin Tread app on your phone and set up with your credentials. I will share a group drive code at the start of the drive and will request all participants to join the group drive. 

Garmin Tread App will help us to track all members in the convoy should there be any break in the convoy. Garmin Tread App does not record GPS Track, hence you would still want to use Gaia GPS or your favorite GPS App that you use to record the drive. Please however ensure that you exit the group drive after you have finished the drive - otherwise it will keep sharing your location.

Thanks, Looper, for the great drive—as always. Hope to catch you on the next one.

 

It was nice meeting some new faces this time, like Nicolo and Sam. And to the rest of you I’ve driven with before—great job out there. 

 

Appreciate the good company. Have a great weekend, and see you on the next drive.
