That’s great. Also don’t forget to register for the drive by clicking the green thumbs up button under the trip discription.
Thank you everyone for joining and making the drive a success. Im sure all the Newbies and the first timmers must have had fun and learnt a lot from this drive. It’s always good to recieve feedback from you guys so please feel free to write a review/trip report :thanks: .
At the meeting point seeing a good no. of support was a morale booster and helped a lot in proper allocation of convoy with enough support for all. Special thanks to Marshal @Asem, @baher and @abdallah for joining at the last moment when you were needed the most :yesss: .Also a big thanks to our Deputies :ymhug: (@Asim @Alex @jatin @krister @francis).
After a small briefing the inter convoy took off straight to the nice long ridges :drive: , for which Al Faqa is famous. Everyone drove really well from the beginning which helped us to increase the drive level slowly. In middle of the drive @Jatin took the lead and showed us his amazing leading skills on big ridges as well as in the tight technical sections near Al Qudra. With just few recoveries and 2nd tries we ended the drive near Al qudra Lakes @7pm.
Overall it was a great day spent with all of you. Looking forward to see you all soon. -
