DRIVE DESCRIPTION

THE START TIME AND LOCATION HAS BEEN UPDATED. PLEASE ENSURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST MEETING POINT MAPPED.

Two weeks ago we explored and conquered Tilal Sweihan—this weekend we’re heading back for a high-octane run west-wards through its best lines! The mission: link up as many long-range dune sections as possible, riding the ridges high for epic views before blasting south towards Khatm, where we’ll finish with a wild ride through the rollercoaster dunes.

Hi @Luke K P, sorry for the last minute drop out but I have caught a terrible flu and thought I would be ok for tomorrow, but the bug is pretty persistent. So sad to miss this drive. Have fun and see you at the next one soon! 

[_luke_]

Uh oh!! Hope you're feeling better soon!

[Glenn W]
