Hello DubaiOffroaders,
I am very excited to be joining my first drive with you guys on Friday 16th. One thing only is that I am missing the flag from the required equipment. Still looking to buy one. Is it ok to join without it this time? Please advise. Thanks

Hello Kekx,
We’re also very excited that you’re coming with us for your first trip.
Do try and get a flag as it is imperative to have a flag for safety reasons.
If you’re absolutely unable to get it tomorrow, then as you will join the Dubai – Al Ain road, there will be an Enoc which will come on the right hand side. That Enoc has flags kept for sale near the fuel pumps. You can buy a flag there.

I will like to join but have no rear tow point is it OK
Hello Vikas,
It shows in your profile that you have a Xterra 2011. Could you please check your tow hook again?
Without a rear tow hook, it will be a problem to pull you out safely in case you get stuck. I am afraid we’ll not be able to allow you if you don’t have a rear tow hook.
Please check again and update us. You’ll find my WhatsApp number in my profile.
Also, the number provided in your profile is giving me an error that it is not a working number at the moment. Please double check the number in your profile.
Without a rear tow hook, I am afraid we’ll not be able to allow you due to safety reasons.
Hi Guys, looking forward to joining for my first drive as a newbie. Only need to pick up radio tomorrow morning can you recommend make, model and shop I could pick up a suitable one please?
Thanks

i’m also looking for a radio since this will be my first trip. Awaiting your suggestions so that i can pick up the radio today.
A tuned radio is vital for safe off-roading. You can buy one from dragon Mart. Crony, Motorola are some brands used. Some shops will tune the frequencies. Be familiar on usage. Please refer to Technical articles and reviews, Offroad walkie talkie faq for details. See you all tomorrow.
Thanks hamza for accepting me at the club. It will be my first time with dubai offroaders. I have been few trips with other clubs, looking forward to meet all of you tomorrow. ✌️ :relaxed:

Hey Dubai Offroaders,
It was an awesome Newbie drive today. Thanks to the leaders, Marshals and everyone – it was nice to drive with you all.
If anyone took any videos, is there is a way that they can share it? We can all share the videos and photos we took today together somehow 🙂
Thank you all
