@munkybizness@Rajesh NG@Ahmed Wagdy@DanielN@Richard Franks@Hisham Masaad@Frans M @Tom V@Marketa Dobesova@Pacific@Andrei S@Looper Another great morning out with a fantastic convoy of passionate offroaders ! I am glad to be able to get people to join in these drives ! They relax me more than any desert drive does and allows us to traverse different sets of terrains and keep it doable in this hot weather. We started from Al Daid Fort, which was our ancient supply route which we wanted to emulate and traced a route to Dibba Al Hisn with various types of terrain. As i wanted to start the drive at 25psi this was initially very doable but once we reached the soft sandy areas where we could not use available farm tracks, it proved to be a bit too high, so we brought it down to 20psi or 15psi and continued the drive. This drive took us through various tiny villages as well, where not a lot of life was seen. I can only think the villagers were on the couch watching Netflix as that's about the only sane thing to do around noontime in this weather It was a great feeling to finally reach the beach and get a shot with my Carnity family ! You guys and gals made it so much fun ! Great support from @munkybizness @Looperand @Pacific to guide us safely through the streets and deserts. Thanks guys really appreciated ! A short relive video can be found below: https://www.relive.cc/view/v8qkpkVV3Kv See you all soon in the sands / streets / deserts again !

Congratulations @Simon D✌️✌️💥, pleasure to move up with you:)

Congrats @Simon D well deserved promotion
