Fantastic day. Its my second time when i did car maraphone like a passenger. Since morning drive ive been passenger on 6 different cars participate to two convoys and 2 drives. Thanks to all DO fellows who made my day awesome! So, in my situation i was not upset about car broken.
Peace to all and see on sand soon :yesss:A very nice guy in a grey Nissan Xterra (he maybe was a marshal??) lent me a blue flag pole. Forgot to get his name…couldn’t believe he had an extra flag pole (preparation goals!). Anyway…I have it and would like to return it. If anyone has any idea who this awesome guy is, please message me. Will be sure to pay it forward!
