Thanks @Ignacio Quindós! Thanks mate. For sure, see you soon! Thank you doc @Chaitanya D. Always a pleasure to drive with you! Thanks buddy, see you soon!

I will join @Looperif you are camping after the drive, am free from Saturday 5pm.

Gutted not to be in due to prior commitments, but I am jealous already! 🙃

Thanks. The problem in this instance was the 'wrong' starting point is a legit one, where some drives begin (just behind the yoga centre). I even went there the previous evening to walk the dog and there was no reason to disbelieve 😅. It's only when I reached the point, the maps decided to re-route with time to destination as 21 mins more in the opposite direction! Probably Gaia is the way to go with co-ordinates.

It was bizarre last night that google maps took some of us to a completely different location, but the actual starting point was in the opposite direction ~30kms away. @Krishna Rsaid he ended up in sand all by himself. Luckily had enough time to reach the starting point but it's not a great start, running late, rush through deflating, setting up the flag etc. I have also read this issue happening in some other threads and it happened to me a few times, especially when the location is offroad. Is there anything we can do to improve, i.e. add co-ordinates, landmarks (if there is any) next to the meeting point link? Just a thought to avoid some anxiety 😅

Thanks buddy @Zixuan Huang - Charlie

Thank you @Hisham Masaadfor your kind words. Having done most of my fewbie and fewbie plus drives with you, you are a mentor to me. These are the drives that allows to stretch our wings and learn to fly as an adult, i.e. got to know my truck better in these level drives, with the trademark ‘Yalla Push’ on the radio from you. Your support and guidance on or after the drive was immensely helpful, so thank you once again and look forward to joining your drives 🙏🙏 Thank you @Haitham Khattab, see you soon buddy.

Thank you @Frederic. It was exactly the day today one year ago I was in your absolute newbie drive where my desert off-roading journey started. Since then it has been a humbling experience so far, with the help of marshals, support team and fellow desert lovers, there is always so much to learn. Look forward to more 🙏 Thank you @Senthil Kumar, see you tonight buddy. Thank you @Brette, after the absolute newbie, it was your drives that gave the confidence to move ahead.
