Hi @Zahid Sharif @khurramm @Danie @Myrko @Yurybel @vinayak n @Mei Ling @Hani crest king @nithish468 A bit of late drive report 🤣... Thanks a ton for joined this drive! Honestly, for a summer drive in Sweihan, this was a pretty big convoy, and that made it even more fun. We kicked things off with some smooth sideies and small ridge riding on a super clean track, warming up nicely before reaching our first break point at a scenic hill, perfect spot to chill and laugh a bit. After that, we pushed toward the higher dunes near the Pillion Track. Looked tempting, but we decided to leave that adventure for the next drive 😅. Around there, @nithish468 had to head out early, while the rest of us carried on toward Nagra Hill. Instead of the usual climb, we circled around and attacked it from the backside. Some of you wanted to reattempt but we decided to keep it for the next drive 😅again. I owe you for this @Mei Ling. We wrapped up with a smooth and scenic exit track, wrapping things up smoothly. Shoveling and pulling are part of learning, however we did not have a chance for this, as everyone drove like pros! 🫡 Big thanks to the support @Frederic @J-P L @JeromeFJ @Mehmet Volga for always having our backs. Can’t wait to hit the sand with you all again on the next one.

It was a nice scenery and enjoyable drive @M.Seidam. Adding more experience with the attempts on the straight uphill. Thankyou everyone for the good companion.

Dear Desert Wanderers the RSVP is now closed for this drive. @Theo09, @Aringga, @Mark B, @Suneedh Wrangler, @Kashx2, @Steffi, @essam ibrahim and @Gary F, firstly thank you all for being on time, it makes the day start off on the right foot and allows us more time to play in the sand. we started off slow and easy and relaxed into the drive around the one and only clean patch of sand in the Qudra desert. It soon became apparent that you all were on top of you game and were driving like pros's, this prompted us to have to result in playing in a softish patch of sand to try to get some deliberate stucks. we kinda got there but the sand was not really soft enough, the cars were very capable, and the drivers even more so. So we soon gave up on this idea. From here on in we slowly but surely increased the level a touch and then had our first stucks, a slight cresting and one sidey that resulted in a lovely self-recovery. we then had our sweep having a slight refusal, so myself and our CF went back to assist. then as we were assisting i too had a refusal, the banter started as our CF thought this was very amusing. then the dreaded Karma struck, Myself and our sweep were able to self-recover, however, our CF had a lovely cresting that resulted in some handy winch work, unfortunately the convoy did not get to witness this as you were all patiently waiting where we left you under the watchful eye of our S/L. We then returned to the task at hand and exited where we started. You all drove amazingly well which made leading you all an absolute please. A big thank you to our S/L @Theo09 you did a fantastic job holding, moving left of center and right of center when instructed as we dodged a few pockets, well done excellent job My two partners in crime in CF we had @Mark B and sweeping us was our crest king @Gary F you both played blinders as always in supporting the drive with a calm professionalism that you both bring to the stucks and refusals, you also gave us a good laugh at the back when we had to help each other get out of our own self-inflicted mayhem. Great job as always guys and makes leading so much easier when you are in the convoy. Have a great rest of your weekend A small re-live video of the drive to watch over. https://www.relive.com/view/vYvEGLr9Gw6

Thanks @Ishak @Frederic @J-P L @JeromeFJ @Mehmet Volga for the Drive!

Incredible weather today morning . Along with sun rise we hit directly to the dunes of Faya spending most of the time climbing , switching and roll coastering after which we took a brake before every one take his chance more than once climbing the legendary Faya dune . Truly every one did more than great . On the way toward exit the long lady was awaiting to great us 🤣 after which we took a farm track to the pylon straight to exit near Mahafez mosque . Thank you all for sharing this passion .. See you soon in the sand 🔜
