I am truly honored to receive Senior Marshal rank, and I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to CARNITY and everyone who has been part of my journey. Since my very first drive, Carnity has been much more than just a club, it has been a family, a learning ground, and a place where the passion for off-roading comes alive. Every drive, every dune, and every recovery has taught me something new, and I continue to learn with every drive I go on. A special thanks to my mentors, I will name only 3 with whom I drove for very first time @Gaurav @Srikumar and @Rahimdad You taught me my first steps in the sand and guided me through my early drives. Your support, patience, and trust in giving me the opportunity to lead have laid the foundation for everything I have learned and achieved. And i also thanks to everyone I have driven with, past and present for sharing their experiences and friendship along the way. Here is a glimpse of my first memory - me in my Sport Trac, Sri in white Pajero, Rahimdad in Pathy, and Gaurav in his legendary Paro.

@Andrew John Melvill Congratulations – Keep it up! -
Trip Report What a fantastic adventure, huge thanks to each of you for making this drive possible and truly memorable. @Marek As second lead, you were rock solid as always. Quickly adjusting especially when i see obstacle unexpectedly. You handle your 4runner like a pro and really it does wonders at sticky situation whenever you are in trouble. You can only explain us what happened to you in that gully and how you recovered from there. @Jessica Lambert I hope your passenger enjoyed the bumpy morning as much fun as the rest of us had. @Sandeep N Great driving with you for the first time! I hope you enjoyed the lines I picked.. you handled the technical sections like a pro. Looking forward to many more drives together. @Beide Worku Hats off to you for being a perfect sweep. Always keeping an eye on the rear and ensuring no one was left behind, much appreciated your support. The area we explored is a “jungle in the desert” driving in such area has its own thrill with plenty of challenges, tricky navigation. This route truly tested our dune reading, control, and navigation skills and I couldn’t have asked for a better small convoy of 5 to tackle it with. And finishing the drive with a 25 km in full BAJA style was the perfect finish. See you all on the next adventure! Special thanks to @Jessica Lambert and @Beide Worku passengers for joining the drive and being part of the fun.

Trip Report Exploring Liwa always leaves a lasting impact on me, it takes about a week to fully recover! Even now, when I close my eyes, I can still see those enormous dunes and massive sand pockets. This journey wouldn’t have been possible without my amazing team, and I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to all of you. You drove exceptionally well in every situation! Our convoy positions were decided at the meeting spot upon arrival, and here’s how it went: @Marek my second lead, making precise corrections whenever needed, even before I picked up my radio to instruct. Truly commendable! @Jessica Lambert your driving style is highly impressive, and you tackled every obstacle flawlessly, staying right behind marek throughout the journey. @nithish468 sorry you had to leave in the first hour due to an emergency back in Dubai. Hope everything got sorted out. We missed you on the drive! @Alphin Aloor this was our second time driving together in Liwa, and once again, you were absolutely flawless. @AlexM you managed the dunes and obstacles smoothly and silently hope your passenger enjoyed the ride. @ChrisW the moment I saw your Jeep at the meeting point, I couldn’t help but smile you know why? The Winch! I always hope for at least one participant with a winch in our Liwa drive, and this time, my dream came true. We even put it to good use, recovering me from a tight spot after a pop-out. @Luke K P you took on sweep duty at the end, making sure no one was left behind. This drive was truly dedicated to you, as I once promised to take you to Liwa this season and I’m so glad we made it happen! Once again, thank you all for being part of this incredible experience and making it with one crust recovery and one pop out. Looking forward to seeing you all next winter for another unforgettable Liwa adventure.
