Dear Desertnauts. A short briefing in preparation for tomorrow's drive. First and foremost, for the Newbies (or Absolute Newbies) joining the drive, please make sure you have a radio, fully charged, and a flag, to bring with you. Both will be necessary. The meeting and deflation point will be available on the main post. Please come punctually, so we can have ample time to deflate, and most of all to conduct a thorough briefing about desert driving principle and main skills. The convoy order at the moment will look as follows: @Andrew John Melvill in Second Lead @Luni at #3 @Mahesh_ at #4 @Esteban Ayala at #5 @Nikki1007 at #6 @Hartzel at #7 and @khurramm in Sweep. Feel free to bring family and friends along, with some refreshments to be enjoyed during one of the stops along a very pleasant route, on pristine sand. See you all tomorrow.

Dear @Esteban Ayala. Sorry, I just saw your message. You are welcome to join the drive, tomorrow PM at 3:30 PM. Looking forward to seeing you.

Dear Desertnauts. Short briefing for tomorrow's weekend opening drive. The meeting and deflation point will be posted in 10 minutes. Kindly reach it in time for a timely departure. The drive should be relatively quick, starting with a more complex technical area (mostly due to abundant vegetation), and will proceed with increasingly clean yet tight dunes, until we'll reach the Ghost Roads, around which there are some nice and clean dunes to look around. The convoy order will be: @Glenn W in Second Lead @Lukas Wii at #3 @Steffi at #4 @Yerem Davtyan at #5 @_Piotr_ at #6 and @Giacomo in Sweep. See you tomorrow for an interesting and fun beginning of the weekend.

MUST WATCH: NEWBIE VIDEO BRIEFING Drive Details Level: Newbie and above Meeting time: 03:30 PM Meeting Point: https://maps.app.goo.gl/cTqUGKvmG9eEvAey6 Action Plan: There is a secret place in Qudra that has been miraculously spared from the overgrowth of vegetation that has covered most of Dubai's deserts. Pristine sandy dunes run in long and parallel lines, allowing new off roaders to get comfortable with desert driving, and beginning to practice the essential maneuvers to venture on the sand with friends and family. If the convoy's skills will allow, we can move up the drive to learn more complex driving techniques. A thorough briefing, in the shadow of the many trees that surround this area, will precede the beginning of the drive. Overall, we plan to enjoy a relaxing afternoon and sunset in the desert, with the opportunity also to see many wild animals.

We'll start from the general Razeen area, to proceed westward across a succession of technical areas and vast sabkhas, until we'll arrive at Abu Dhabi's "ghost roads", that is the remnants of a never started residential development, where only the tarmac roads and the road signs rise from the dunes that have reclaimed most of this area. A "post-apocalyptic" feeling that will make the drive as adventurous as possible, while crossing different terrains, dotted with unusual types of local vegetation.

Dear Desertnauts. A quick briefing for tomorrow's drive. The goal and drive plan are simple: drive as fast as possible (terrain permitting) between the star dunes along the Pink Rock to Super Bowl route, and climb as much as possible once we reach each star dune formation. We plan to stop and enjoy the sunset at Super Bowl, hoping to find it with as few people as possible. The convoy order will see @Giacomo and @Glenn W share the Second Lead.and Sweep duties, with @Hartzel and @Jeromestarting at #3 and #4, and switching positions as well throughout the drive. See you all.tomorrow for a timely start around 3 PM.

Dear Desertnauts the briefing will be (hopefully) as quick as the drive. We'll enter at Sweihan Tilal, in an area not much driven but potentially interesting: long range dunes, mixed with some technical stretches, and not too many bushes (we hope). From here we'll head in the direction of the sunset (which should guarantee better visibility and readability of the dunes and ridges) toward the Fox's Den, and all the way to Faya Truck Road. If time permits, we'll enter a very technical area, of taller and tighter dunes, that runs parallel to the E20, all the way to our exit point, sometime around the setting of the sun. The convoy order will be: @Giacomo in Second Lead @Joao Aguiar at #3 @Jerome at #4 @Jerzi at #5 @Ash S. at #6 and @Aser in Sweep. See you tomorrow at the meeting point that was posted yesterday in the drive's thread and description. Thanks
