Dear Desert Wanders @Sunil Mathew, @Abdullah N, @Prithvi Raj, @Vijay Cowlagi, @Damian, @Soufiane, @Nizar Shawwa, @Abdul Hannan, @Jassislahi, @Menon, @Hani Howeedy, @Andrew John Melvill, @Rob S and @Shaun J thank you all for being on time this morning and ready and eager to drive in the beautiful Al Fayah desert. you guys all drove amazingly well through some difficult soft sand,I hope everyone had as much fun and enjoyed the drive as much as I did. Great S/L from @Soufiane thank you for supporting the drive in this critical position. It made the whole drive go way more smoothly. @Sunil Mathew thank you for the excellent support in the CF role, having you there mastering and controlling the middle of the convoy was critical to us getting in and out safely whilst also dealing with the several refusals and stucks that we had. @Rob S thanks for showing up at the last minute to support the drive we would have struggled without you there mate, so thanks again always a comfort to have someone with your knowledge and skill in the sweep position, I hope you all have a great rest of your weekend and I hope to see you all on one of my drives in the near future

Thank you Deepak @DP1011 for an excellent drive this morning ! Nice location and itinerary, good mix of technical and wider dunes, perfect pace, a few challenges here and there, excellent management of the convoy.. Beautiful selection of lines, keeping the level on the high side, but always within the convoy capabilities. It was a pleasure to drive under your lead ! (and I was about to forget an amazing self recovery from a deep pocket hidden on top of a dune!) Excellent drive from every participant, the sand was very soft, and Deepak kept throwing in more climbs, ridge riding and crossing! It was above Fewbie level on many occasions, and you managed very well, always under control. Well done @Ahmed Farouk, @Aser, @Robk, @frederic demolder. Thank you for the support and more experienced members @Pascal, @munkybizness, @Bjoern, @Naveen Raj @Amr Aydin for joining also, it was nice to see you after a long time! Enjoy the rest of the weekend and see you soon.

Thanks @JeromeFJ - It was great to have your experience right behind me, and that helped me to keep up with the momentum . Indeed that hidden pocket recovery will be cherished for a long long time . My most challenging so far ! It was absolute pleasure to see everyone so punctual and we started our briefing sharp 7! I cant agree more with the way the convoy kept accepting the challenges with very minimal refusals, managed smoothly by the experienced members. Very well done all the FB guys - @Ahmed Farouk, @Aser @Robk @frederic demolder ! Did not hear anything from you guys @Pascal and @Naveen Raj - Which is an indication of how nicely you managed in soft patches churned up track Hope you guys too had fun ! Thanks for anchoring and supporting the convoy @Bjoern, @munkybizness ! and thanks for sweeping us @Amr Aydin ! Was absolute pleasure seeing you all and looking forward to another one soon ! Below some stats on our drive today ! See you soon all in sand !

This is a Relive video of our path today and a few pics. Thanks @Gauravfor another fabulous drive. These FB+ drives are challenging and I can feel a sharpening of skills happening. @Pacific - thanks for the support out there on top of a couple of dunes where I was nicely perched. 🤣 Have a great weekend everyone.

@Davie Chase Hi Davie, hope you well. Since its my first attempt, would you pass on contact detail of a member based in AD- so I can ask and clear some doubts over call mainly from a vehicle’s technical requirements viewpoint. Thank you
