Thanks guys for joining today ! The plan was to explore an area where i noticed sizeable dunes, nearby the well-known Desert Rose Safari camp: https://maps.app.goo.gl/y11DiJwxcEYh8m2H9 As this was quite far out from where we started, this meant a bit more sabkha driving than usual, and swallowing up the bushes where needed In the end, it resulted in a 60+kms track where you guys can be proud of how well you managed it. It contained some tight technical dunes, some larger dunes where we could wake up our engines, and some areas that had lots of crosstracks. The pleasant weather made it nice to do some shovel work as well, so we didn't shy away from that. Thanks for @Emanueland @Ishak for their support as well ! I wish you all a good last couple of days of 2024 and a blessed and healthy 2025 !

Good morning @Looper, did you change the meeting point ? Edit Wrong date 🤦‍♂️

We will be climbing DP Hill on Ch:2. That’s a constant. Following is our convoy order. Once again request all to be present well ahead of time and be deflated and ready to go at 7:00 am. This week I will not wait. EPPCO will be nearest but it won’t sell E98 so the Enoc or Adnoc near Outlet mall will be your go to fuel pump.

Was an amazing ride today. Thank you @Fredericfor this wild experience. Also thank you @Ishak and @Emanuel for your patient support. See you all again . Happy new year to all..

@Ishak… They say if it’s worth doing. It’s worth over doing. Everyone is welcome. Let there be madness on DP Hill…

Fantastic drive today, thanks to Fredric, Emanuel, Ishak and all the drivers - learnt a tonne.

@DP1011 thanks again for a fantastic and varied drive! @Bjoern @Dodi Syahdar and @Mehmet Volga thanks for all the support given to the convoy making it run very smoothly. To all have a great rest of the weekend and very Happy New Year.

Dear all : Thank you all for signing up ! (RSVP closed) @Andrew John Melvill @Michael asir @frederic demolder @Talal H @Bjoern @Abhishek Chikara @Arvindraj @Tanveer Ahmed @Glenn W @FERNANDO SYRIO @Dodi Syahdar @essam ibrahim @Mehmet Volga Convoy order as below, See you all tomorrow morning : Some important pointers before meeting up: 1. At the meeting point there will be a NEWBIE convoy of @Frederic as well. Please make sure to line up close or behind the Granite Crystal Rubicon (my 4x4). 2. We will be using Carnity Channel 2: 446.031 Mhz on the walkie talkies. Please make sure to bring yours fully charged (No exception please). 3. Please arrive at least 10-15mins before the meeting time so you don't have to rush to deflate and put up the flag. Any late comers, I will be very polite to send them back. 4. Make sure you are fully fueled up. There is an ADNOC just next to the meeting point. 5. We aim to exit by about 11-11.30am. See you all tomorrow morning ! And my apologies to WL candidates @Hani crest king @Amr J - Considering the convoy length, I am unable to consider you this time, and will certainly see you soon in coming days ! I assure you another drive in this terrain !

@nithish468, @khlief, @Shahid Mehmood, @J-P L, @Waqaɾ, @Andrei S, @Alphin Aloor, @Frans M, @Gautam Banka, @Mahesh_, @Rob S, @azad, @Lala G Thank you all for joining this drive. In case anyone feel they are not able to make it please exit and do not be a no show. Please take some time to plan your time of arrival, nearest fuel station etc. Please make sure that you reach well in advance and are deflated to leave by 7:00 am. I would need everyone to be on highest concentration at DP Hill. It is a very technical area with very narrow passage and would not take kindly to any lapses of concentration. We must drive attentively and take a very deterministic approach. After DP Hill we will go towards Murquab. We would take a break on the top of the dune at Muquab overlooking our own Route 66. After Murquab, we will drive towards Faqa. The drive will again be filled with bushes and wide dunes but towards the end you may find some very nice clean technical areas to drive. Hopefully we will end our drive at Faqa in about 3 hours' time after we start, but it could very well take a bit more time. As you must have seen already the deserts of Dubai are turning green. There are hardly any places that are untouched with greenery. Pretty sure someone carpet bombed with seeds of various shrubs all over the place. So do expect a lot of bushes though out the drive. We will be tracing our way in the little bit sand that will be available for us.
