  1. Thanks @Islam Soliman for the drive. It was a unique experiment to have big heavy vehicles in the front and puny ones towards the back. We were virtually gliding in the churned up sand in back, but a great experience nevertheless. Never ever did I was worried about pop out for so many times did I today. But it was a miracle that there were only two in the convoy. a big thanks to @Humayun Ghias, @Amir Amiri, @Pacific, @Matt.T, @Ranjan Das, @Ashok chaturvedi and finally the newly minted advisor @JeromeFJ for participating in an intense but fun drive.
  2. Happy lunar new year to our friends and wishing you good health, joy, and success in all your endeavours in the year of the Tiger.
  3. While coming for the drive I was mentioning to my Son features of an enjoyable drive. It will start with a small technical area for the warm up, then it is followed by a long range dunes or tall dunes or bowls and finally finished off with another round of technical area to calm down all the adrenaline. Today was one of those drives thay qualify for the hall of fame list. In fact it was better, since we enjoyed both long range dunes as well as the tall dunes of Little Sweihan. @M.Seidam you had a meticulous plan for today and it was great fun driving under your lead. @Davie Chase, you drove like a pro and did an excellent job in the second lead. Always maintaining enough space to reroute the convoy whenever needed. @Alphin Aloor It was a 2nd 5member convoy drive with you after one at Al Faya many months ago with @Pancho as lead. You had to stop your car at an steep angle, and perhaps could have recovered without any anchoring, but abundance of caution never hurt anyone. Thanks again @M.Seidam for your expert guidance on this recovery. Off-road driving like parachute jumping, with practice and safe driving nothing goes wrong and it’s an adrenaline shot, and great fun, even those precarious looking rescues. @Daniel Rodas you win the “Looper” of the day prize. Driving on soft churned up trail, one tends to slip off the trail. I had plenty of them before and with practice you will too master your car. But you drove quite well and ready for the next level. Today was my first drive I joined after I was nominated to join the Support Team, and it is great honour for me and had a blast driving at the rear of the convoy. See you all soon.
  4. @M.Seidam short convoys are the most fun to drive with, I am looking forward to a very fun drive.
  5. I have my Jeep insurance with Orient as well. During the first year renewal (2020) I wasn’t off roading but in 2021 I was. I am that kind of guy who will buy everything with all options (my Jeep is the only exception). I gave all the bills for all the upgrades that was done to my car and they increased the insured value. So the premium remained same as previous year.
  6. I opened this post in my computer to share the link, but realized that I was sharing my screen in a teams call. That was awkward. Anyways @Frederic to the rescue.
  7. Congratulations @Quresh Pajero well done. I remember i was in the 2nd lead car that day when you did your absolute newbie.
  8. Technically it is meeting time but if you come at that time you will see that everyone is deflated and ready to go. Most people come 10-15 before.
  9. Yes we do. Just subscribe to the WhatsApp notification channel and wait. You’ll find previous weekday drives in the calendar.
  10. Of course Xterras are huge demand now, with you @Thomas Varghese acting as as pro bono brand ambassador for them and promoting it, it’s no surprise @Gaurav Soniis struggling.
  11. for cleaning sand off the car even the pulsing air is fine, it one was to use it for hand tools then it will become burdensome & difficult.
  12. @Ranjan Das too has a nice set up with his radio. something quite similar.
  13. If it works with ARB then obviously is a good deal. Thanks for sharing. 👍
  14. The actual moving speed should be higher than what I have shown here. I was taking loops in the desert while @Ranjan Das was self recovering his Jeep, at a low speed so mine is actually on the lower side.
  15. It was fast and it was furious, and it was fun. What a great drive. With everyone giving their top-notch performance it was a pleasure driving with you @Foxtrot Oscar. A big thanks to @Russ to take care of the tail end. Gaia GPS Link
