Thank you all for signing up to this drive. Some pointers for tomorrow:
1. Meeting time is 06.30 but please try to arrive by 06.15AM so you have time to deflate and set up your flag.
2. If you have highway terrain tires (HT), you can deflate to 14psi, otherwise with All Terrain (AT) tires you can go to 12psi.
3. Walkie talkie channel will be Channel 10: 446.231Mhz. If you do not have obtained a radio yet we can lend you one for this drive.
4. If you did not have watched our Newbie briefing video, please do so. It will be your best introduction to offroading with us.
5. Please ensure fuel tank is full. Battery charge also full
See you all in the morning!
On the truck now and heading towards the service garage in Abu Dhabi 👍
Thanks again everyone for a great drive, and for all the understanding, advice and support at the end!
See you guys again very soon on the tracks
We rolled out at 06:30 with a strong convoy of 10 very capable drivers and a very simple briefing:
"Find huge lines. Ride them nonstop for 2 hours 30 minutes."
And that’s exactly what we did.
We spent the morning balancing along ridges, crossing back and forth between dune lines, and carrying plenty of speed through the larger terrain. As the dunes opened up, we leaned into the bigger lines and pulled some serious G’s across the bowls and slopes.
Good pace, strong driving, and exactly the kind of flow we came for. 😎
Mission complete.

Hi Frederic and everyone, looking forward to joining you!
Ford Bronco Raptor, 2025. I confirm front and rear recovery points and all required equipment (radio, safety flag, tyre pressure gauge and deflator). My onboard inflator/compressor is still being installed, so for now I’ll simply reinflate at a petrol station after the drive.
I have 15+ years of off-road experience outside the dunes, including UTVs, rock crawling, mud driving and expedition travel. Looking forward to gaining more experience in the dunes with you!
Thank you, Mr. Frederic.
My car is a white Nissan Patrol Y61, 2019 model.
I have all the required equipment in my car; the only thing I don’t have is a safety flag.
I also have previous off-road experience at an intermediate level.
