Congrats @Lakshmi Narasimhan!!

Happy Birthday @Ale Vallecchi. Have a good one.

@Aisha S @Dwain Fernandes @Mohammed Azar @Jeepie @Luc Khaldoun @Arman thank you guys and gals for joining the drive. We ended up starting a little behind schedule but with a small convoy and everyone driving really well, we still managed to cover some good ground. @Aisha S@Dwain Fernandes @Mohammed Azar I did bump up the level a few times as you'll were just gliding through everything and even then you 3 managed really well with just a few refusals. This ended up being my first newbie drive where we didn't need the shovel or rope. Kudos guys. @Luc KhaldounI'm enjoying watching you grow and get into sync with your beast. Really impressed and well done. Thank you @Jeepiefor the excellent support and @Armanfor sweeping and making sure everyone was moving. See you in the sand.

Thank you @Veedoosheefor the excellent trip report. Well done. Khatam has some nice small dunes that have patches of really soft sand in between them and negotiating that has turned out to be a bit tricky for newbies in the past but the convoy today did really well with just a few refusals. We headed first towards the Maliha play area where we did a few low sideys mainly for the first time drivers to practice a bit. Once we moved out from the play area, we found ourselves surrounded by very bushy terrain where we had to keep the pace really slow and negotiate some steep descents to get back towards the tracks. Truly impressed with the way everyone handled that area, especially @Luc Khaldoun and @James Thorn since both of you drive beasts. Once on the flat, we back tracked a bit to get around all the vegetation and then headed to Camel Rock and then to Faya where we spent the last 45 minutes and everyone got to practice a few sideys or climbs depending on how many drives they have already done. Thank you @Ammar Najifor being the perfect 2nd lead , @Veedooshee and Doc, @M.Seidam for the exceptional support and everyone else for being a great convoy. Well done everyone and look forward to driving with all of you again.
