Congratulations @Ana for being our member in the spotlight for this week! Close to having done 30 drives with us, we always enjoy your presence on our drives and hope for many more to come!

Hi Ana, indeed it's always a good time when you're part of the crowd 😁

DRIVE DESCRIPTION Following the success of our first session with @DP1011, we're heading back into Qudra's rolling dunes for the second instalment of our ridge riding series. This drive is all about building confidence, refining technique, and learning to read the terrain. We'll take a relaxed approach with plenty of opportunities to discuss lines, share tips, and practise key skills with the club. Whether you're looking to reinforce the fundamentals or fine-tune your ridge work, this session is designed to help you become a smoother, safer, and more confident desert driver. Come ready to learn, practise, and enjoy the dunes. 🕖 DRIVE DETAILS Level: Fewbie and above When: 1 August 2026, Saturday Meeting time: 6AM - Sharp (Without any exceptions).

Thank you so much guys !!! I love our little community and enjoy being in the sand . I thank to the amazing team of leads and support team for everything I leaned so far and keep learning each time , and thank you fellow drivers for beautiful memories. I will see some of you on the dunes this Sunday

In case you still need to buy offroad equipment, we can recommend Dragon Mart 1: Proceed to the EB section: https://maps.app.goo.gl/tTUuZUDpkMycUhjg8 where you will find two-way radios. The Crony MT777 or Baofeng UV5-RH is easy to program and use. If you walk around you will also find pressure gauges, deflators, shovel, and air compressors (buy a compressor that is big enough to inflate 4 tires, not the tiny ones that use cigarette lighter plug). You can also get an offroad flag here that you can attach to your vehicle with a suction cup. Another option is Amazon: https://amzn.eu/d/0eWiaSuN https://amzn.eu/d/0gExNNIR https://amzn.eu/d/0bMjxN8e https://amzn.eu/d/0bwX4zn1 Two way radio won't be available on Amazon. Only Dragon Mart sells them (or some hunting shops).

Hello @Lvc. Unfortunately only promoted Fewbies can join this drive. I am sure it will not take too much for you to reach the level. Keep joining a few more Newbie drives and you'll be able to apply for promotion online. Thanks for asking.
