Well spotted. It should say flag also for all members. This is also a prerequisite if you drive with us more than once. We can edit the list. Hamza!!!!

Hi Darrag,
Tomorrow morning it will be difficult to get a shop which will be open from where u could get a flag.
I would suggest dragon mart tomorrow before Friday prayers time. U could get a foldable fishing rod and a suction cup which can be used as a flag. You could also visit any of the cycle shops in there to get a flag.
Hi Duncan, can’t miss ur drive. Have registered but am tentative at the moment due to family commitments. Am trying to make my way out of it. If I am successful then I shall see you all at the meeting point. :yesss:

Meeting Time: 14.30pm
Drive Start: 14.45pm sharp
Drive Route & Terrain: dare I say sand! 😕
Duration: 3/4 hours (before sundown) =;
A tricky drive in a soft area with plenty of ridges and bowls to keep you on your toes.
The area has all the high dunes which we will visit before we finish at sundown at a point to be decided by your lead Marshall.
This area is less busy than what you are used to and so we will have plenty of trackless dunes to enjoy our sport.
Hope all can make it for some Friday fun! Adrenalin will be guaranteed.

Thanks Duncan, Joe and all DOs… thanks for an awesome trip…… will see you next time.
Had a super (first) time in the sand, nice to meet you guys and big thanks to the marshals for their hard work, good advice and pointers! You took great care of us newbies!
That was a blast, cannot wait for the next one!
Thanks again,
Dara
Hey Dara,
Was a pleasure having your company and you rocked with the H3.
I’d recommend just getting the slight heating issue with your ride checked out, as we wouldnt want that hampering us from having a lot more fun in the weeks to come.
Till next time, drive safe and remember “Keeping Having FUN !!!!”

Pleasure was all mine Saif and thanks again for the tow out of my ridge balancing act 😀
Yes, I’m on the case with that, seemed to be ok after that main spike we spoke about, and your advice. Across the day it rose on average 20/25% to normal, with a/c off less but I’m going to drop in this week for a once over just in case.. I plan on giving it some proper sand action from now on so best have it right!
