@Vanessa8580 There seems to be a lot of demand for this drive. Any chance of a dual/split convoy?

Let’s see by the end of the week, there can still be some changes in the convoy …

Hi Vanessa ,

There is no drive for newbie on 24 Sunday  so I will be thankful to you if you allow me to join this group.

I wish to join the newbie drive on 23 Saturday but m working that day .

I am sorry but I cannot allow you on this drive, this is only for first timers. 
Unfortunately you will have to wait until next week to join a newbie drive. 

@Sam K and @fareed khuraishi

Welcome to Carnity Offroad Club !

As a small introduction, kindly inform us about the following:

1) Which 4x4 are you bringing ?

2) Do you have any prior offroad experience ? if so please specify.

3) Is your 4x4 equipped with towpoints at the front and back ? This is mandatory to join our drives.

For your first drive, i would request if you can bring the following items:

* Pressure gauge

* Tyre deflator

* Air compressor so you can inflate your tyres after the drive (petrol station is nearby but has a defective compressor).

If you have more offroad equipment, you are welcome to bring it along. Do not hesitate to post your questions on this forum.

See you on coming Sunday !
