    A very nice drive today with “one stars” and a selection of “experienced no star”.
    Congratulations to Alex for his first full drive lead : very well done indeed with good pace and great dunes. Nicely done Alex ! :ymapplause:

    It has been a very long time since we had a drive with no recovery and no pop-out. All participants did really well. Congratulations to all of you guys. 😀
    Thanks also for making my life simple that day : sweeping with no recovery is really great. :thanks:

    And a special thanks to Harib for organizing and preparing the drive.
    Having the groups ready, including radio frequencies before the start makes it far easier. :thanks:

    Thanks Asem, for leading a great drive. The start was fast paced with a lot of great climbs, the challenge was thoroughly enjoyed!!! Finished off with some nice simpler dunes at the end with a nice finish on Iftar bowl, a great well rounded drive. Thanks
