    Dear soon to be Desertnauts,

    as mentioned in the previous post, please reach the meeting point as close to 7:00AM as possible, to allow as swift a start as possible. You can refuel, if needed, at the Al Qudra's Last Exit ADNOC station. Please, be watchful of bikers coming through the bike lane just off the turning point on Saih al Salam Road, before crossing it.  You will find myself and @Kailas just to the right of the turn-off, waiting for you, and ready to assist in checking your cars for appropriate clearance and tow hooks. The Carnity frequency we'll be using throughout the drive will be channel #1 (466.006).

    Once deflated we'll proceed to approach the actual entry into the sand, where we'll have a detailed driving briefing before starting the actual drive.

    The convoy order for the drive will be the following:

    @Aghabi in Second Lead

    @fayazc as #3

    @Salvador Perez in place #4

    @Sreenath Giridharan at #5

    @Ravi Kumar will be #6

    @JDub at #7

    @Riyas Mohammed in place #8

    @Yerem Davtyan will be #9, and 

    @Kailas will sweep the convoy.

    Enjoy your Saturday evening, and see you tomorrow morning.

     

     

     

    Noted and will meet you all tomorrow on time 👍

    I have extended the convoy to 12 in order to accommodate those on the waitlist, and we have a few drivers with good experience who can help support the drive. 

    @Sreenath GiridharanI'm just trying to clarify your rank,I have had it confirmed that you are still at Newbie level therefore I will have to remove you my friend. Hopefully we can drive soon.

    @Looper@Pacificstay on hold, it could all change in a flash (as well you know)

     

    Hi 👋,  my apologies that I  enrolled in this drive. Okay let me  try newbe drives. Enjoy the drive everyone
