Sun - Tuesday - Limiting one drive per member Wednesday onward - RSVP on multiple drives @Ali Abas Ali @asifk as both of you are signed up on more than 1 drive, please decide which one you would prefer to attend and then remove your rsvp from the others so members on the waitlist who do not have a single drive can join. You can add your names to the waitlist of any other drive and on Wednesday if any spots are still vacant, you can then be added for a second drive.

Drive Report: With the weather cooling down it was a chilly morning at 15 degrees. Everyone was at the deflation point on time, deflated and ready to go. Entering from Qudra south was a bit tricky with the technical dunes and having a few heavy weights ( Sequndra, F150, Y62 and JGC ) in the convoy, I decided to not to try going over them but instead found a path through them to avoid any stucks right at the start. Once we crossed the subkha, we had a mix of technical and a few long range dunes where we picked up the pace a bit seeing that everyone was doing quite well and for a while the entire convoy was moving at close to 45kmph. Having covered about 35 KM by 9.30, I was contemplating exiting close the last exit as we were quite close or whether to go through to solar park. A quick word with @Frederic who confirmed that everyone was doing well and we should be able to make it to solar park led to us changing direction and heading ito solar park and we were there at around 10.05. Besides for a few refusals and a couple of stucks, everyone did very well and we covered close to 45 KM. Drive support team. @Ashy, thank you for being the perfect second lead, @Kailasthank you for the help on the recoveries and being a brilliant center forward , last but not least thank you @Frederic for keeping the convoy moving and for overlooking the stucks and recoveries. @Ashy @VipinShetty @tcarrimjee @Anand Nataraj @Abu Muhammad @Kailas @Dagdag Sofiane @Franco Swart @Francois Germishuys @Alexander Alcala @Fredericwell done guys. Being my very first lead, I was a bit nervous to start with but soon realized this was an excellent convoy and each one of you did really well and that kinda eased my nerves. Having @Frederic in sweep was also an advantage as we were literally playing in his back yard. Again, well done all and see you'll in the sand soon.
