  1. If you are a leader, don’t follow the guy in front of you. Getting to the starting point of my own drive proved that, as I was following Sri who was going to his own drive. Still, we made it on time and got the convoy moving quite early, which meant we could enjoy the sunrise while driving into the desert. Starting with the jungle in the smaller technical dunes, I managed to turn Richards face quite green and we had to stop for a different type of bio-break. Finding some taller longer dunes meant that we could do some sideys, criss crossing and ridge riding, which led to a perfect sidecrest by @Jun Zamora I have to check my camera to see if I managed to capture that. Everybody seemed to be climbing Pink Rock without any problems, so off we went again on the other side where the sand was a little soft, but we all managed to keep going. Circling back, we slowly made our way to the exit point. We only had a few refusals and a couple of stucks, which were handled by @Brette and @Ale Vallecchi very swiftly. Thank you very much for your support. @J Jdid a great job as second lead and gave me the bonus of a very nice video of the trip. Thanks @J J, @Shiju Manueland @Febin Frederic for the pictures in the Gallery. @Lorenzo Candelpergher thank you for the trip map I will be signing off for a month as I am travelling to the Netherlands to visit my family, so @Wrangeld ;I am sure you won’t get carsick and have lots of fun, please take care of my little car!😁

  5. Congratulations mr.Expert 😄 Looking forward to doing lots of drives with you
  6. Wow Ale, amazing. Congratulations. You are moving up fast 🚀
  7. Congratulations. Hope to see you in the sand again soon
  8. @Foxtrot Oscar, congratulations. It is always good to have some extra girl power 🥳
  9. Thank you Gaurav, I did mention to Richard that I thought he was a little tough on us in the report😄. I was very pleased we managed to get everyone in and out safely and I think there is no shame in having to adjust the plan. For sure we have a lot to learn, but I think it is important to remember to have fun while learning.
  10. You played a big part in the recoveries as well, Ale. Especially impressed with you getting yourself out a very sticky situation
