A little bit of pink, but a whole lot of off-road skills! Keep it up @Mei Ling!

Happy Birthday Junaid! Yes the Pajero is still around.

Thanks for the beautiful message @desertdude. I only joined the Carnity family in 2017 and started driving with the club in 2018, and felt at home from the first drive. Gaurav played a massive part in that. Every drive I would ask for his feedback and i was in awe of what he could do with that Pajero, all the while I was having the same Pajero but hardly could make it up to Pink Rock. His passion for the desert was there from the start, but the concept of building a community around it was developed by him and we still bear the fruits from it every day, and everyone who drives with us understands that what we do in Carnity is not just off-roading, but trying to provide a platform and space where people can be just themselves, form bonds and friendships, and enjoy the wonderful nature that’s so close to our doorstep. His trust in others and in myself brought me here, and the values we learned from him will be the same values we will keep instilling in every person we meet or drive with. This and this alone makes Carnity unique, and we have Gaurav to thank for that.

@_Herman_ Funniest comment of 2026 so far And with the help of ChatGPT we can now visualize it: All kidding aside, it's amazing to see the teamwork on this eventful drive of @Luke K Pand @Mark B Not only are the two of you fantastic leaders who took the challenges today with a smile, it goes to show what we can achieve if we have the help of others with us, and no doubt these kinds of drives will offer good memories later to be shared around a campfire.
