Hey, Greetings all. A desert roller beginner ,would like to join for the drive on Friday ( 18th ), Pls advise whats the procedures and from where i can get the radio equipment. Thanks Jenish.
Hi Jenish and welcome to Dubai Offroaders!
You’ll need a radio and a flag in order to join Friday’s drive (we cannot allow you to join without these for safety reasons). Dragonmart is the place for a radio (or you can order from edragonmall.com). You can then tune your radio to the frequencies given on this site. The flag and mount you can get from Adventure HQ or Ace.
You need to click ATTEND to sign up for the drive. At the moment the places are full but you’ll be added to the ‘pending’ list – keep checking as this is updated frequently.
See you Friday!
