@Chaitanya Di guess probably sday you choose relatively less challenging route without much soft patches on the way considering 1st night drive for most of us. I realized the advises by @Wrangeld, by you and many others to back up my thoughts to go back to lower level drives to learn the basics right helped me a lot. Just to mention that my last 5 drives went smooth with 0 refusals. I am happy that I got much needed advises on right time and my learning applying that reflects on my drive. Hope much more advises/learning in store for me.

@Ale Vallecchi thanks for the detailed feedback. When we reflect back on what happened every one will realize that at times we need that push to break the barrier and get out of comfort zone and focus back on the drive to negotiate and cross the challenge safely, which was achieved. Hope in future drives we recall your screaming push push, keep moving, gently left right while climbing and it helps in polishing our handling skills.

@Chaitanya Dthanks for the detailed feedback, hope I didn’t had any refusal yesterday, Most of the time I was announcing the refusal ahead of me which was eventually a gold pajero.

How did I missed mentioning you @Shaaz Sha. Great job in sweeping making sure every one stays clear and fixing @TT_Dubaityre pop out. See you soon!!!

@Chaitanya D, @Wrangeld, @Gaurav Soni, @Jeepie, @Soumya Saklanigreat leadership, managed entire drive well, safe and enjoyable with right amount of challenges and technical areas. For most of us this drive could be the 1st night drive or even first newbie drive, which should be a memorable one. With few refusals, self recoveries, pulling out, lot of learning for most of us. Driving in the dark looked scary, with proper guidance it turned out to be so easy and enjoyable. Never had chance to see the dune in the night, but today it became reality, only thing couldn’t see any animals on the way. Thank every one for this drive and see you soon in the sand!!!! Good night.

@Ale Vallecchi, @Mehmet Volgavery good drive. Managed through few tricky areas very well and guiding every one. It was pleasure to follow the tracks of @Ale Vallecchi, loved it a lot and thanks for lots of tips all around the drive. Definitely it was a drive for few taking us out of the comfort zone and to experience ridge riding and crossing the bowls, special thanks for taking through ridge riding one by one and the briefing and letting us to watch others doing the ridging to understand what mistakes we do. I believe every one in the drive had something new to learn with few refusals, recoveries, pop out and enjoyed. I throughly enjoyed this drive in the convoy and looking for many more drives!!!

@Ale Vallecchi, @Mehmet Volgai am late by 15 min due to oversight of time

Once you complete couple more drives you will get used to it. When you go to Fossil rock and faya 45’ incline will be nothing. You are in safe hands of the Marshalls, when they go thru, you can blindly follow. Only thing you need to know the correct momentum needed for crossing the dune, patch.

Sorry that was my oversight, drive is for 10 person only. @Chaitanya D can add you if any spot opens up.

Then @Chaitanya D can help you

@Pierre de Maigretspots are available and no waiting list, you can rsvp now. See you soon.

@ARAGON as @Wrangeldmentioned theres nothing to worry if we follow the instruction/guidance provided during brief and every now and then during the drive by @Ale Vallecchiand with your full concentration and following the tracks of the person in the front. Sure you will enjoy the drive!!!

Great leads, long convoy, more fun, more challenge, more thrill, more to learn! what else to ask for!!!

@TT_Dubaiit was clearly communicated by @Rahimdadnot to post any pics with people outside during the brief and to be always covid compliant. Even though its a recovery we should not have posted the pics. At least going forward lets not breach any rules hard learnt lesson🙁

@Rahimdad, we apologize for this, we will make sure this never repeats again. Hope to see you soon in sands leading us.

@Rahimdadhope everything is fine and see you soon in sands.

@Rahimdadeven I would not be able to join this drive, I have rsvp on other drives for Friday. Will join your drive soon. Have a nice time guys!!!
