Drive Report What to say about Faqa that hasn’t already be said? Everyone was in great spirits as we gathered to ready ourselves for what we all hoped would be a great afternoon of driving. We picked our way through the small patch of technical dunes to reach the long range slopes. As we did so @Shehab Alawadhi found himself atop a crest and @Junaid120120had an ungual stuck. It didn’t take long to get them both off again and the convoy motoring through Faqa’s glorious dunes. In a convoy that was intermediate driver heavy I looked to see how well @Shehab Alawadhi, @Arman and @Junaid120120 could handle ridge riding and criss crossing . It was clear that after a couple of trial runs the three of them were more than up to it. Satisfied that our Fewbies were technically capable I increased the challenge and we headed further into the dunes. Just at that, we had two sick passengers, and alas @Mohamed Seidam and @siddharth maheshwari had to exit. I hope your passengers feel better now. We reached the other side of Faqa, an area not often explored, and here the fun level really increased,. We tackled ridge after ridge, found an amazing sweeping bowl and side sloped and crissed – crossed 'til our offroad hearts were content. I can’t thank everyone enough for their excellent driving that made for a very fun afternoon. @Ashok chaturvedi clearly loves his FJ but I don't think his good lady s as big a fan @Ilya Golubinskywas a fantastic second lead. It was great to drive with @MUHAMMAD Kashif RAZZAQ and great to see you progress . @Islam Soliman once more helped keep everything going at the back as sweep. Thanks @Islam Soliman for all your help today. Special praise for @Shehab Alawadhi, @Arman and @Junaid120120 who all had great drives, followed the tracks and kept with the pace. Well done everyone and thanks again for a great afternoon in the sand, Until our next adventure.

I had halff expected you to remove yourself as this was an issue yesterday too huh? Always best to get these things checked, by a mechanic, especially if you plan to take your car into the desert. Hope it isn't too much of an issue and you're back in the sand soon.

Good morning fellow adventurers, What a beautiful day for a drive! Today's drive will be focused on the Faqa area, I plan to loop around here, although that could change The drive is as ever dependent on the members of the convoy. All I ask is that you bring your wits and of course a good sense of humour in order for us to have the maximum amount of fun out there in the sand. We will be using radio channel 2 (two) My proposed convoy list is as follows: Driver Car Level Position Angela @Foxtrot Oscar Black x Expert Lead @Ilya Golubinsky White wrangler IM 2nd lead @Shehab Alawadhi F150 Fewbie 3rd @Arman Silver Wrangler Fewbie 4th @Mohamed Seidam White x IM CF @Junaid120120 Cream FJC Fewbie 6th @Ashok chaturvedi Yellow FJC IM 7th @siddharth maheshwari@MUHAMMAD Kashif RAZZAQ White Wrangler Yellow Wrangler IM IM 8th 9th @Islam Soliman Black Yukon IM sweep

I'm really sorry, I wish I could accommodate you I hope to get to drive with you soon

The data is from July 2020. I only see 6 drives in total with 2 @ newbie . I'm really sorry , but you need to have completed 5 drives at Fewbie level to join a fewbie plus drive . Did yiu change your name on the forum or something? I can check with that too

@N@ved given that I have had to remove @Joe Biju Joseph (sorry ) it means there is a slot still available. I know you are not 100% but I am trying my best to accommodate everyone. (Even at this late hour) If I don't hear from you by 11:15am I will assume you are not attending and plan the convoy without you. Everyone else, standby

@Joe Biju Joseph I'm really sorry but you do not have the required number of Fewbie level drives to attend this drive. According to the data you have completed 3 fewbie drives. You need to have completed 5 to participate in Fewbie+ drives (the Fewbie + drive being at least your 6th drive)

@N@ved I can give @Ilya Golubinsky your slot. @Ilya Golubinsky you're in. Indded it is, see you at 2pm

Yes, you will know before the drive Patience my friend.

Hey @N@ved the drive isn’t full so you are free to join. Thank you for being so considerate though

Hey fellow adventurers, I’m Back!! 😆 Join me for a Saturday afternoon amble through the stunning dunes of Faqa. Faqa is without doubt one of the most scenic areas that we can venture off road. It has everything, stunning dunes, beautiful greenery and of course, sunsets to die for. But don’t pay too much attention to that as this area also has difficult terrain that will test your off-road skills. We have great technical dunes and the other side of Faqa offers razor sharp long rage dunes that scream out for us to bash them down with our skid plates as we ride atop of them. How far we go and how fast we see it will, as always, depends on you and the convoy. Are you with me? Yalla!! This drive is organized in full compliance with the COVID19 guidelines. We expect every member that joins this drive to go through below information and strictly follow these guidelines in order not to jeopardize someone's health, and to ensure we can keep organizing these drives safely.
