This was extreme for sure! At times more INSANE than extreme. Nearly 90 km through hectic climbs, high-speed crossings when climbing at full RPM in 1st gear, non-stop concentration from the word go. Thanks for the exhilarating lead @Emmanuel - you took us through routes that I would have never guessed is achievable with stock cars!!! And sometimes twice from different approaches. Well done to fellow extreme Ramblers @Christian Andras and @Jorge Stepniak Felippe

For those coming from Dubai, take note that the entry requirements have changed from 1 Feb: 1. Al Hosn app is now compulsory ( not Text anymore) 2. You cannot enter AD with a DPI test if your previous entry was also DPI - need PCR. ( this requirement is a bit confusing, as the Gov site seems to indicate that you cannot enter AD more than once with "DPI test", which could also mean the same test - best to check before you wake up early just to be send back). And PCR only if less than 48 hrs prior.

What a great drive at the off-road mall Great lead by @Emmanuel, who took us through rolling dunes, where most of us were completely oblivious of the other convoys crowding this area on a typical Friday afternoon. We were treated to a diverse mix of multiple crossings, safe ridge-riding, sideys by the dozen, and many moderate climbs - an excellent learning experience for the Newbies who were lucky enough to join this trip. All Newbies can be extremely proud of their performance - some only doing their first Newbie trip! I am sure they have learned a lot, as 99% of the refusals could be managed without even touching a shovel! Well done to @Nagham Albeitawi, @Mario Cornejo, @frederic demolder,@Ammar Naji, @pqpqpq and @Ahmed Wagdy - rest assured, no Newbie drive will throw more at you, and you can only look forward from this trip! Thanks to @Nabil Bishara for the support, with only 1 kinetic recovery - which you executed perfectly! PS: @pqpqpq, you can ask @Frederic to help you changing your username!

Thank you for organizing a great drive at a great place @Frederic! Absolutely stunning vistas and massive dunes to push our vehicles. I was pleasantly surprised to see how good the fewbies did on this drive - well done to @Mus_hus78 and @Gaurav Soni for overcoming those deep bowels. Thank you to @Asif Hussainand @Gaurav for the convoy support - hope to be back in that area soon!
