That’s fine for the first drive. Just make sure your radio channels are programmed to DO frequencies. As soon as you reach the meeting point, start deflating and put up your flag and you will be ready to go!

Probably, we will welcome you in the Newbies convoy. With proper car seat for your precious daughter, it should be fine.
Looks like it’s going to get really cold on Friday. Temperatures forecasted are between 14 and 17 degrees (as per Google). We might also experience a sandstorm and some rain. Don’t forget your umbrellas guys, especially the convertible Wranglers!
Guys as Dubai Tour is happening over the week-end, please avoid E44 on your way to Al Faqaa this Friday. Only take E66 (Dubai – Al Ain road).
Especially those of you coming from Sharjah.
Below is a map showing the closed roads on Friday.
Unfortunately wont be able to make it to the trip. Jeep’s still in service, will be getting it after the weekend.. Enjoy guys!

thank you but I have read all the instructions carefully and I have already stored those frequencies in my device in the first place.
I like to be prepared.My question was straightforward: which channel are we going to use for this trip, or will it be suggested at the meeting point?

At the meeting point the Marshals will give a briefing and will assign radio channels to different convoys.
thank you.
All clear now.
