@Simon D

While I was eager to participate in this drive, unfortunately, I won't be able to attend as I am currently unwell with the flu.  I hope there will be another opportunity for me to sharpen my ridge riding skills in the future.

Team, enjoy the drive!

Looking forward to it. 

@Looper, I apologize for missing the confirmation note on time. I'm looking forward to joining the next one.

@Looper I haven’t received any further updates and confirmation on my rsvp regarding this drive and don’t see the convoy order published yet. Is that me alone or same for everyone ?

@Faraz94@Marek_was003do you have any passengers for this drive. If not is it ok you can accommodate 2 of my boys? 

Thank you @Gaurav  Nothing happened so far. 

Hello all, 

I was wondering, is it okay to drive my Jeep Wrangler in 4H part-time mode for around 5 kilometers at speeds exceeding 100 km/h? Any potential problems with that?

Yesterday, I forgot to shift back to 2H after finishing the drive and only realized it after covering an around 5 kilometers. I was also wondering why the car didn't give any alert or beep during the entire journey. Is there any issue with driving in 4H part-time for that distance and speed, especially considering the oversight?

Hey Simon,

I hope this note finds you well! I wanted to extend a massive thank you for steering us through the Tawi Nazwa desert off-roading adventure—it was an absolute blast! And major kudos on hitting that impressive 100th drive milestone. What an achievement!

The unique terrain, featuring technical dunes, long-range side sloping, ridge driving, and cris-crossing, made this experience unforgettable. Your leadership and the support of the team and co-desert wanderers added an extra layer of excitement and camaraderie.

Oh, and let's not forget those donuts and coffee—what a thoughtful treat! They kept our energy levels up and our spirits high throughout the journey.

Thanks again for such an awesome experience. I learned a ton and can't wait for the next adventure!

Cheers,

Confirmed
