This is the place where I had my first Swihan drive experience on 9th October 2020 in fact my 2nd Newbie drive and the day when @Asif Hussain was promoted as Marshal. Today is another day to remember and a great showing by all. The first half was spent climbing tall dunes and being thrilled at sight of those mighty dunes. We visited a couple of huge bowls where were tried to climb. In the first one I was not very successful will do it next time, but was able to conquer the second one. There are always going to be many many tall dunes to conquer and never ever a good idea to try everything in the same drive and do mistakes. In an intermediate drive there is nothing much to do as a support, since everyone is quite accomplished drivers, especially in the sweep, all I was doing was follow a churned up track and take some pics. The pics I put in the gallery will never do justice to what we experienced today. Thanks a lot @Shaaz Sha for this magnificent drive;, @Asif Hussain blessing with your presence and partial 2nd lead and showing how to climb those dunes for the rest of us; @Pacific in the center froward enjoying yourself. It was unfortunate to see that mighty Patrol of @MMansoor get hot, hope it gets fixed soon - and keep us updated on the causes. @Gilbert Khalil you for sure had a great day in your first Intermediate drive. It was a pleasure driving with you all @Ranjan Das, @Waqas Parvez, @Vaibhav, @Rajiv Sam, @Anoop Nair, @Naveen Raj and @MMansoor.

Except for some minor refusals on the way to the finish today we had a splendid performance by everyone driving today. Thanks @Brette and @Anish S for a great drive.

I am following the mantra of if you can’t fight them join them. 😂 getting my wife to drive.

I saw you message on @Hisham Masaad drive that your “bitter half” is not accepting to permit two drives a week and then see you accept the offer from @Gaurav Soni to come to the drive and I like whaaat?? And when you flip flopped I am like, yeah there's is balance in the world order. Frankly the first thing comes to mind to us maniacs if some one asks to join the drive is “yes off course sure I’ll go”. Then the reality kicks in, and you realise that there’s responsibilities, and a world outside the addiction of driving in the dunes. Happy dune surfing y’all.

Congratulations @Ashutosh Garg, well done.
