Dear Desert Nomads, @Emanuel @Issam Atra @Cole bertasso @Ishak and @Lalaji  great way to finish off my drive weekend, although we had a few issues at the start, we overcame them with smiles and banter to get us all moving off in the right direction (towards the sand). Due to a later start than planned we had to adjust our route but still managed to tackle some nice technical dunes until turning up the heat on the mid to long range dunes which you all handled admirably.

We did have some spectators during a couple of stucks but they did not offer to help lol although did shout encouragement through roars and grunts  

Special shout out to @Emanuel for an excellent second lead, you did an awesome job mate to keep everyone on a nice smooth track, thanks and appreciated.

A big thankyou to @Lalaji for sweeping the convoy, you did an amazing job of keeping me informed every step of the way.

I hope you all enjoyed the drive as much as I did and I hope that you all have a great rest of your weekend and look forward to seeing you all again very soon in the sand

@Patrick van der Loo great point I forgot to thank @DP1011 for the coffee☕️thanks Deepak it was very much appreciated 🙏

Dear Desert Nomads, @Emanuel @Issam Atra @Cole bertasso @Ishak @Gautam Banka @Sreenath G and @Lalaji we will be using Ch4  446.081 our convoy for tomorrow will be as follows:

Looking forward to seeing you all bright and early at Lisalli

Dear desert Wanderers, what a way to start the weekend, a beautiful sunrise greeted us after the first challenge of navigating the foggy weather on our way to Abu Dhabi. However, this did not dampen the spirits or enthusiasm of anyone in the entire convoy  @DP1011 @Mohit Gurnani @Ranjan Das @Rk ram @Dodi Syahdar @Patrick van der Loo @Gertjan and @Looper . Without exception everyone greeted each other with a cheery smile and lighthearted banter. 

The drive itself moved off and we wasted no time in getting into a fantastic rhythm along the longer-range dunes before entering some tricky technical dunes worthy of an intermediate level drive. The sand to start with was a tad firmer than expected due to the damp foggy conditions. However, this soon changed as the current bun (sun) quickly dried the top damp layer turning it into powdery, soft, lush white sand as only Fayah has to offer. The Entire convoy handled this change with prowess befitting an Intermediate drive, with just a few refusals and a couple of stucks that were quickly and easily dealt with by the wonderful and super knowledgeable support team of @Looper, @Dodi Syahdar, @Ranjan Das and @DP1011. You guys one and all drove amazingly.

My Second lead @DP1011 played a blinder, and I truly mean that, we had a couple of oh oh moments with an unexpected appearance of a nearly buried fence and a couple of surprise appearances of rock formations. all handled brilliantly by @DP1011 who was quick to react to my radio messages, well done mate and a pleasure to have you in S/L.

@Dodi Syahdar and @Ranjan Das both had their part to play in a couple of tug of wars, we got to see the brand new not so shinny Bronco in action and it was a pleasure to watch, thank you both for your support today.

Lastly @Looper who as usual Swept the convoy with professionalism and style, and with the occasional loop just to ensure he keeps the name alive and well. Having you in Sweep my friend meant I could relax at the front and enjoy the drive, thank you and appreciate the support it was outstanding.

Thanks again to you all and have a great rest of your weekend.

Good Morning desert nomads of Lisalli, thank you one and all for making my centenary drive a very memorable one. I hope you al enjoyed it as much as I did. We started off slow and steady as we moved through the beautiful Lisalli desert. increasing the pace slightly as we encountered some medium range dunes to play on.

A special shout out to my second lead @Stan you did a fantastic job my friend keeping the lines smooth and following all of my instructions to the letter. Well done

@Imran Asghar Could not have managed without your support in the sweep position my friend was a comfort to know you were there assisting with the two or three stucks that we encountered along the way. Thanks again buddy was much appreciated.
