Hello! 😊

Is the convoy numbering already available? And the channel/frequency we’re using?

Congrats @Jeepie !!! 🎉

Congrats @Gregory Perkin !!! 🎉

Congratulations Richard!!! 🎉👍🏼 You deserve this!

Well wowzers!!! 😃 I certainly didn’t see this one coming!! But thank you very very much anyway for this rank! Extremely grateful for it!

Happy too keep on learning. And still honestly think that at my level the fewbie and also newbie level drives are great for learning, and possibly at some point helping others learn as well. Personally I think it will develop the skills as a driver when you repeat the very basics many many times, building the routine, and therefore the confidence. When you no longer have to concentrate so much on ”surviving” the drive, you can relax a little bit more, and scan the route further, thinking that what is the best way to drive the upcoming challenges. Also think that what would the best suitable route be, and what are the challenges that you may face. 
 

See you on the next drives! 🙂

It was again fun yesterday! Thank you everyone involved!

Especially @Srikumar and @Ale Vallecchi leading us professionally and safely. I think there was good amount of nice relaxed desert driving and also challenges riding the ridges and crossing them sideways. Had to pay attention what you are doing, pushing yourself and your skills. And good choice of places where to do it, not too steep ridges to cross, being too difficult -in my opinion.

Thank you @Gaurav from my behalf as well for the great drive!! And everyone else as well for participating!

It is always so great time on these drives! And especially now to see the sunset in the dunes, absolutely amazing!! 
 

Looking forward to the next drive!

Thank you so much for the promotion and congratulations! So happy about this! Thank you!!

As seen on the last drive, the newbie drives are still good for learning new stuff, but once I have all the necessary equipment, will be excited to join a fewbie drive as well! 😃

Please make sure you all have your two-way radio with you and that below frequency is programmed into your radio.

We will start using the radio as soon as we arrive at deflation point. 

Broadcast channel will be:

- Carnity Channel 1: 446.00625 Mhz.

See you guys tomorrow !

Copied! @Frederic You programmed my radio two drives ago, so should be tuned in correctly! 😃

Hello! 

I just realized that I cannot make it for the Friday drive unfortunately! 😞  Well, more time for me to get the flag! Hopefully can join the next time!

I left the event so somebody else can have my place in the drive! Have a great drive everyone!!! 😃

Good afternoon everyone! Great to see the drives continuing!

Still don’t have a flag on my car. Any tips where to find a flag for a Wrangler..? Thanks!

Please read and understand all the points below before joining off-road drives.

With the current COVID-19 pandemic, we all need to be very responsible for our-self and others.

• To keep the briefing short, please go through https://carnity.com/brief before joining the drive.
• Adhere to all the COVID-19 Precautions for Carnity Offroad Drives STRICTLY.
• Bring your own walkie talkie, as we no longer share spare radios, even for absolute newbies.

PLEASE ACKNOWLEDGE THIS POST BY CLICKING "TOTALLY AGREE".

Totally agree!!!

Matti

Thank you everyone for the awesome drive yesterday! Especially @Frederic for the general arrangements and good briefing and @Gaurav for the great instructions during the route! It was exciting and even challenging drive for a newbie level driver like me, but enjoyed it very much! You learn the best once you push yourself a little bit!

The grand finale on top of fossil rock was amazing! Would love to do it again!!!

Hello! 😊

Joining this drive on Friday! It will be my second drive in this group, so still in the newbie -level. I have a modified Wrangler JK, with everything in good working condition. It worked well on the first drive, but just in case got a shovel for the new adventures. 😀Also bought a radio, but have to set it up to the correct frequency that we are using.

Cheers!

Hi, thanks for the information. No we don't have a WhatsApp group. But I shall be there at the meeting point on time. See you in the morning.

Welcome onboard. See you tomorrow morning. 

Welcome. Could you provide some details about your ride?

1. Which 4x4 do you drive?

2. Does your 4x4 have front and rear recovery points

3. Have you had any previous offroading experience?

I have a Jeep Wrangler 2 door model with 3 inch lift kit. The car has smittybilt steel bumbers where you can attach recovery equipment. Not an experienced driver...
