First thank you for joining the drive, and attending. Having few names in the waitlist, would have felt bad if some of you guys did not come. Started about 50 minutes late, due to heavy fog, few joiners reached late including my self 🤠. Briefing done, and adventure started. The only thing you can do in this area is dunes side sloping and climbing. Believe all enjoyed, few stucks and refusals, which is normal in this type of terrains, specially wherever soft and churned areas. Was pleasure to see you @GauravSonijoining the drive and having a part lead, despite being awake the whole night. Your support during the drive was really good and appreciated by all. I am sure all learned from different situations and how to handle. @Mohamad Anwerthank you for being SL today, and thank you for bringing Abdelghani. @Richard Franks thank you for supporting us today as CF, and enough FB drives, apply for higher level🤓. Thank you very much @Daniel Rodasfor sweeping us today. All FB drivers were amazing, and I am sure each one has realized the power of their car. Pleasure meeting them for the first time. @Haitham Khattab @Mahmoud Taha @FARAZ MOHAMMED @Manoj Soman @Beide Worku @Muhammad Qasim. Good to see you again @Mark D @Naim Aoun @DP1011. Look forward to see you again in sand. Wish you nice weekend ahead. Take care Hisham

Hi All, please note that I won't able to drive this weekend due to a relapse of an old shoulder injury. Thanks, @Wrangeld for helping to lead this night drive on such short notice. @Udit S @Waqar Sarwar @Joji varghese @george charbel @Rajiv Sam @eldose baby @JERINE_B @Dinesh Kumar A @Pacific @Manoj Soman @Farook Veettil @Savio Fernandes

I wash the body of my car weekly, and this gives me time to check fluids, as well as polish out any small scratches etc However once a month I also like to have the underneath washed to get all the sand out. Any good recommendations for a decent car wash in Jebel Ali area or even Al Quoz? The auto pro here at discovery isn’t great and I’ve been a couple of times to the Good Steam next to Icon but they do a rubbish job inside and leave streaky glass. Where do you Dubai guys get your vehicles done? Cheers.

@Brettethanks for a fun morning today and @Looperthanjs for explaining the nickname and the decal 😂

I have to remove myself. Sorry for the last minute called off. Have to take my child to Hospital.

In

Confirmed

Same here I use Autopro in Motor city and tip the guy who does the washing 20 AEd and 30 for the guy who does the vaccum. the car come out spotless and by now they all know me and cleans it to my liking.

Have u searched and tried Grand Service Center around you. I use them in Warqa and they are very thorough. I believe they have few branches around too, rem seeing one in ghusais side.

Confirmed

Comfirmed.

Me doing from Zenith washing center Al Quoz. They will not do vaccum, just pressurized air. SUV full wash 45 Aed and accept card also Cannot say very good but OK

I’m will come . Inshaallah see you at meeting point

@Kailas, confirmed 👍

@Kailas I am going. See you tomorrow

Take care @Gaurav

Thank you

See you tomorrow morning. Will see you too tomorrow morning. The convoy will be updated later.

Thank you so much @Hisham Masaad for the amazing Drive today. Challenging drive with soft sand, yet lots of learning on self recovery from refusals. You showed patience and care for the whole convoy. Thanks @Gaurav Soni for the continued support and advices on refusals and taking the lead during the drive. Special Thanks to @Daniel Rodas, @Richard Franks for your support. Looking forward to another drive with all of you again. some pictures in the gallery.

Three men are in the desert when their jeep breaks down... They decided to split up to find some help. One of the lads, Jack, says "I'm taking the radiator since it has water in it." Another, Mike, says "I'll take a hub cap, for shade." They see their third friend, Greg, taking the door off. "What in the hell are you doing, Greg?" "Well if it gets too hot, *I can always roll the window down*"
