Drive Terrain: Tracks and DunesHi,
I am a first time offroader and wanted to check if I can drive alone or should get a friend along. Extra helping hands as I am confident of getting stuck ๐
Also I wanted help on which brand or model of air compressor I should buy as I found some from aed 149 to aed 999 in Ace hardware. I have a GPS but is there any way I can upgrade it for offroad? I just bought a tire gauge, tow belt and hd shackle (2) from Ace Hardware but no walky talky. Again is there any particular model or can I borrow one from a friend for this drive and then buy my own?
Can you please help me with the above so that I can register for the trip? Happy :drive:

See you in the line up…………
quote GordonDK1973:I guess we will have to deflate our tires to 15psi if we are driving in the dunes? If so, I’ll probably have to be there a bit early to do this (if we are to set off at 17:00)? :drive:Hi Jimmy , tyre deflation should take no more than 5minutes … however I would suggest that you get there by 16:45
