Dear Desert Drivers
Thank you for joining the drive today. The short convoy and the good ratio FB vs more experienced drivers gave us the flexibility to explore the Nahel area, and the possibility to try a few challenges. Passing by the lake at the beginning, we started with the nice open rolling dunes as a warm-up, with a few crossings to get a flavor of what was going to come.
Then we arrived in a high dunes area, an opportunity for turning around a soft sand bowl, high climbs, high crossings with a view, and steep descent. After the break, we joined a technical area, all going well until at a point we had 3 cars stuck at the same time. Opportunity for the support team to demonstrate different recovery methods.
Crossing the sabkha we went into an empty stretch of technical to medium size dunes, with very soft sand, with again very nice desert views. After a short break , a last portion of tech dunes and a sabkha run took us to a relaxing sand track and to the exit.
@Wayne Momsen, @Yury @Ozgu, congratulations for a first fewbie drive. A promising start into this new level. @Andrei S, thank you for the second lead, @Rob S and @Ishak, big thank you for the support, @frederic demolder, thank you for being part of the team today.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend and see you soon !
