@Giacomo passenger 😂 i have seen this guy before 🤣 @Sam Selim congrats for the promotion to support team and thx for the tug 😉 @Jose Luis Campos very well done 👍

Good morning session! Thanks monsieur for the nice clean lines. Not much work for me 👏🏼👏🏼 enjoyed it a lot

Thank you all for joining the drive this morning. We started with a series of large, sweeping dunes that tested both driver control and vehicle power. With a bit of speed, we experienced the effect of gravity pulling us down the steep slopes, emphasizing the importance of maintaining momentum. Careful throttle control and line selection were key to climbing the tall dunes without losing traction. The second part of the drive transitioned into more technical terrain, featuring smaller, sharper dunes and tighter routes that required precision and focus. Toward the end, we reached untouched, virgin dunes — smooth and unmarked, offering a sense of isolation and pure connection with the desert. Driving through these pristine sands was a rewarding conclusion to the journey. The Nahel Desert delivered an excellent off-road experience, combining the thrill of big dune climbs with the skillful navigation of technical terrain. The drive reinforced essential desert driving principles — momentum, control, and respect for the environment — making it both a learning experience and an unforgettable adventure. (partially written with Chatgpt, but is very well reflecting the drive !) Enjoy the rest of the weekend, and see you soon!

This was a great drive! Thanks @JeromeFJ for choosing the scenery and handing us a nice array of challenges, long photogenic slopes and even a flat-out drag-race in the dust! (hope to see that ingredient on the menu more often 😍) Great atmosphere, great crew with @Andrew John Melvill, @Luke K P and @Diego in 2nd. In short, great way to start the saturday!

Leading in the desert is one of the most rewarding off-road experiences, combining adventure, strategic thinking, and real-time teamwork in a constantly changing environment. In the Leaders Lead – Second Session, you'll deepen your skills with a strong focus on navigation and route management — essential tools for confident and safe leadership. This session will guide you through three focused modules: Navigation Mastery: Understand how to use a GPS device, compass, and natural landmarks for reliable desert orientation. Convoy Leadership: Learn how to scale drive levels with achievable challenges, while keeping the convoy safe and engaged. Emergency Route Planning: Develop skills to plan effective recovery and exit routes for unexpected situations and backtracking. You can choose any device or app (garmin, gaia, mytrail etc) and mark these basic points and you will be required to reach anyone or a few of them: Entry and Exit Lisaili Fort Skydive Chimney Mark long range playable dunes Mark pylon tracks, cycle tracks Mark as many sabka, flat track or easy exits in case of emergency Mark fencing or restricted area Mark technical dunes P.S.

Sorry @Gaurav, I have to back out. I had the flu and was feeling better, but I've relapsed and it's getting worse again. I need to cancel. You guys have a great time!

Won’t make it unfortunately as I came down with the flu last night 😢

Good morning Jerome. Finally I've received a message to work today, so I have to cancel the drive. This is not usual and has never happened before, just something urgent just this weekend.

My apologies guys but I won’t be able to lead as I came down with flu. Thank you so much @DP1011 for stepping up to the occasion and leading this drive. Wishing you all a great morning out!

@Srikumar sorry that you left us early hope you enjoyed the first hour . ( Picts taken after you left ) your Cherokee remain iconic always 😊
