    Amazing drive :yesss:
    Couldnt get enough and hoped the desert will never end
    All drove very well, with not even an average issue (1 pull, couple of re-tries) :yesss:
    Zak chose a very nice route like a small roller-coaster and when we were close to 2nd December (finish point) we were going left and right touching every single dune around, not wishing to end the drive.
    In fact even when reached 2nd December, we agreed to extend the pleasure for like 30 mins and Zak increased the level a bit to get rid of that adrenaline stopping us from being asleep.

    Ready to repeat this drive any time :ymhug: :ymhug: :ymhug: :ymhug:

    Thanks to all for an amazingly spent time :ymapplause: :ymapplause:
