    This will be an all level drive starting from Al Rowdah Mosque. The sands are still busy at this time of year but this starting and finish location guarantees that we will see minimal tracks and other convoys so come and join us for some Friday fun in the sands. :ymparty: :ymparty:

    Unfortunately I can’t make it this weekend. I’ll bring my car to service tomorrow to fix the broken driver seat and I’m still waiting on some other parts to arrive. :-w :((
    Have all of you fun and be safe,

    regards

    Hello DuncanField and all,
    I’m new at DO and also new at driving in the desert.
    I would love to join this friday but before I wanted to ask if this is a good drive to join as I don’t have experience.
    I’m passionate for cars and love driving offroad but in my home country we don’t have desert so never done before.
    Thanks in advance.

    And also my suggest like a Pajero user, remove front and rear it will take y 10 min to do.
    Make anything like that on rear bumper or just extra Cable tie can help you to tight the silver piece of plastic

    Otherwise you will damage your bumper and lose some parts!

    Great!
    Thanks a lot JustDen! I have the basic stuff with me and I’m in!
    Thanks for the tip Alex! sure will remove those parts.
    See you on Friday then! I’m very excited.
