  1. If you can get the ARB, you will never regret it. very fast and sturdy @Danie
  2. The evening opened with long, flowing lines across the broad, rounded dunes — the perfect warm‑up to settle everyone into rhythm. As the convoy found its groove, confidence grew quickly. Soon we were carving clean ridge rides and smooth criss‑crosses, the kind of driving that feels effortless when a group is fully in sync. A couple of quick refusals popped up, but they were handled exactly the way they should be: early reactions, turning down, no drama, no digging. That kind of awareness saves a lot of time and energy, and the team deserves credit for it. Balance was restored later when everyone got a turn shovelling my car after I managed to get myself nicely crested.. My usual position stuck on top. thanks @Infaz for the photo above 😁 @Hani crest kingdelivered an excellent Second Lead on his first attempt — clear communication, perfect spacing, and sharp responses to every call. A genuinely strong debut. Unfortunately @Noufal was suffering towards the end with motion sickness, and I hope you're feeling much better now. After a quick exit out, a handful of us re‑entered the dunes for a relaxed coffee break, only to discover a beadlock tyre with sand inside the inner bead that kept loosing pressure and was hissing. We got back to pavement and needed a full replacement. The entire team jumped in without hesitation, turning it into a smooth, collective effort. I hope @Suneedh Wrangler made it home safely afterward with minimum stops to reinflate. Please do go past the tyre shop and have them pull off your tyre, clean and remove sand, and refit it on your wheel. will be good as new again. Also please have them check your spare! @Eddie-Dune-Glider hope you enjoyed your first night drive! its certainly a very different feeling going through all the terrain in the dark. And as always, a big thank you to @ChrisW and @Sam Selim for their steady support throughout the drive. Everyone drove really well and it reflects in how much distance we covered whilst zigzagging through Fayah. Looking forward to the next coffee session... Hope to see you there! Thanks @Hani crest king @Infaz @Eddie-Dune-Glider @Noufal @ChrisW @Talal H @Suneedh Wrangler @Ash S. @Sam Selim P.S. Amazon Ramadan sales have started. If you dont have a jack, I strongly recommend taking advantage of the sales time to pickup a trolley jack. a 2.5 tonne or above is more then adequate for lifting one corner of our vehicles.
  3. Hey guys. New fence where we normally enter... Please see this pin about 200m further down the road then you can turn around and drive up the new path https://maps.app.goo.gl/pWhnvvGpTg1u8SM49
  4. Good Morning Team! Looking like we are going to have an nice crisp and cool evening driving through Fayah. The moon is almost 80% full, and should be hanging almost directly overhead when we stop for tea and coffee. Please update your RSVP status if you can't make it.. but I hope to see you all tonight, 20:00 deflated, and ready for briefing. We will use channel 8 (446-181) as usual. I will drop the convoy list around 17:00. @Noufal @Hani crest king @Ash S. @Suneedh Wrangler @Talal H @Infaz @Eddie-Dune-Glider @ChrisW @Sam Selim IMPORTANT NOTE: Please don't forget your foldable chair... I don't think @Hani crest king has any more spares!
