  1. @Chinthaka Ruwan I am travelling ... No drive for me for the next 2 weeks 🤦🏻‍♂️
  2. Beautiful drive @Ale Vallecchi the opening with the sunrise was stunning ! It was just the hors d'oeuvre of the rest of the drive... I did loose a bumper 😅 but I had it coming. Thank you @Gaurav Soni and @Rob H for the support and help on the bumper. @Amir Amiri hope it will all be sorted out. Good to see you all and see you soon.
  3. Thank you @Wrangeld that was a very nice drive. Very eventful from the start... proof that anything can happen in the desert. The terrain of Lehbab is beautiful and challenging, and the convoy did pretty well all along. Great support from @Alex Raptor and @Jeepie as always ! Sometimes people ask me why I still go to Fewbie drives... Going to Fewbie drives is a reminder of the importance of being prepared and concentrated. It is also a reminder of the steps that you need to cross and the learnings you had all the way. Gravity and momentum, reading the dunes and the sand, knowing your car, testing your capabilities... Going to Fewbie drives is also a reminder that in the desert you need to be humble and patient. Everybody gets stuck, no matter your level. But with the advice of the Carnity crew you learn to handle all different situations. It is also the chance to meet new people, and lend a hand whenever it is needed, because that is the spirit of this community. Well done evreyone, have a good week and hope to see you all very soon in the sand !
  4. I appreciate all your nice words my friends. It means a lot It feels good to be encouraged. Glad I made it to this rank. It’s been a steady progression since I first started hitting the dunes and I can’t wait to test this new level and ride along with the more experienced ones. And for the ones that are next in line, can’t wait to see you there too :))
  5. A nice eventful drive @Islam Soliman I believe we did abide very well by your selected theme. What I loved during the few stucks is the great teamwork and humility we witnessed. It confirms the interest we all had in the technical learnings throughout almost every moment of the drive. The long dunes were calling on the way - as @JeromeFJ mentioned - but to be honest, they were not missed today. I am usually inclined to drive in the front of the convoy. Today, driving at the back was challenging because of the churned sand between the tight dunes, but I also had the chance to look at different drivers styles, techniques and learn and anticipate some approaches. Thank you @JeromeFJ @Nabil Bishara and @Mario Cornejo for keeping the convoy together @Gaurav Soni and @Ranjan Das for a very nice demonstration and everyone for a beautiful morning ! PS : @Wrangeld you have competition 😄
