10 cars is a good strength and managable as well.I see few new names and few old ones.
Anyways, the moto o drive is to relax. so no worries.
but guyz dont forget to keep your tools and equipment, what ever you have.
these offroad equipment, doenst matter how unnecessary they seems, are life savers.

Trip Report :-
Yet an other Fun Filled, Exciting trip in the form of a feather under the Cap of MEofroaders.
I would like to thank all the participants for their zeal, enthusiasm, and will to take Risk head on. With you guys it bcomes an even, else It would have been just a Drive.
Every one reached the meting POint almost at time,
We stated our Journey towards the deflation point at 3:50. reach the deflation point with in half an hour, Evey one deflated quickly, and few Photographer take this opportunity to Click some snaps.
A brefing by Ahmed and my self was done, ad arround 4:35, we hit the sand. Since there were couple of newbies with us, so I have to take a very easy route, which means negotiating ad finding the gaps between the dunes, and Yes I do hate tracks, as some one says, Always make your own racks, 😀 , In th begining every one was doing good, but then first stuck comes, which was handled quickly, so I tried to make the route more easy, but through and over the dunes, without killing the fun element from drive. stucks for newbies comes at regular interval.
We reached at our mid destination Fossil Rock, and straight cross the ridge and stop on the other end, jut before the steep decline, and waited for the rest of teh cars to join us, then it occurs that Explorer AT transmission oils heated up, so we have to wait for it to cool down, which make us quite behind our schedule time.
Evey one descends the Step hill quite tactfully, Me an Naveen has decided to convert our positions to make shift command posts, I was a t down hill and Naveen was at top, suddenly our Radios take a Yawn and wake up, we coordinated between us and helped all the cars to come done safely.
We took off from Fosil Rock, and again instead of taking the usual track to Camel Rock I took the Dunes on the right side. and gradually climbed the dunes, intentionally making the climb angle as less as possible so that every one can have the excitement of Climbing the top most dune easily.
During the process, Explorer again became stubborn and decide not to move froma side slope. Any ways we pull her out, and the AHmed bhai ecided to have the Reigns of Explorer in his hands and ride it Like a Cow Boy, however the explorer is not in a mood to move, it get stuck again, by that time the sun was already set and it became dark,Ahmed bhai advised me to take a fast route to Camel Rock, So I said “I I Captain” and took a fast route to camel rock, but explorer has some other plans, just few feets away from Camel rock Explorer again get stuck, and in a try ti pull her out, Naveens Patrol got shut down and tried to Join her American Cousin Explorer in giving us trouble. At this time he super man with wrangler came to help and start the Patrol,
At this point AHmed bhai decided to hit the tracks back to tarmac, instead of going through dunes, Since it was already quite late then our schedule finishing time.
So when hit the tracks and reached the Tarmac without any further event.There Few of us decided to leave and few went a head to Big Fall, where Ail and Salim were already waiting. (I dont know what happened after that 😀 )
I would like to Thank NAVEEN for his absolutely brilliant sweeping, and keeping the Radio alive, by replying to the queries of leader.
Hope you guys have enjoyed and will Join me again.
Cecil, Arif bhai, I have seen you guys taking photos, please do post it. or else send me in mail I will post it for you, my id is [email protected]
P.S I would also like to point out that, Radio is strictly for maintaining the convoy safety and cooedination among the convoy participants, couple of our MATURE members abused the radio and used kind of language which was extremely un appropriate.
I would like Ahmed bhai to take a stand on this issue.
ali you are quite a writer,
Just wanted to clarify on the last part what you have written about the radio, i thought it was some other convoys using our same channel who was speaking on the radio
Cecil group, Arif bhai, where are photos.
Cecil group, if you guys dont want to share the photos then atleast send me the photos of my Pathy on the e mial mentioned above.
@ Naveen, if management has decided to keep silent on this, then I am shut, nothing more on Radio abuse
:D, (BTW every one knows who were the good people using Radio for their Sweet talking)Hamza, Humble request to create a Phot Folder in Gallery
Thanks
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank both Ibrahim & Aamir for their quick response in reaching the people who needed help and especially Aamir for starting my car as well
Thanx
Guyz Hamza has created the Photos Folder, Please come forward share the photos, this is not some treasure which will grow if u hide it in depth if ur hard drive and nourish them with water and fertilizer, nor are these eggs which developed nto chickens if u guys sit on them for 21 days.
I don’t know where we re going, what happened to human values, courtesy etc.
