I partially led one of the newbie drives today with Faheem. Thanks to Faheem for the opportunity to lead and your experienced guidance, I really enjoyed it. The convoy performed extremely well and we covered much more distance than was expected. Everyone performed well through technical and challenging dunes and learnt a lot about Handling their cars off road. Thanks also to Jatin for your support at the back. I was impressed with the way you all worked as a team and looking forward to driving with you again.
Trip report (Joe convoy)
Well paced drive from Faqaa to Badayer Friday afternoon with Joe as lead. Lots of side cresting and some technical dunes which are always a bit of a challenge. A couple of second attempts but all in all no real issues.

INT/ADV trip report
My report is a bit late but better late than never. It was a nice, fast and smooth drive overall, all convoy members managed well. A very nice mix of different terrain. John had to leave early due to a coolant leak problem and I really hope it was just a minor issue and that the car got back home safe. Thanks to John, Martin and Krister and all the int/adv drivers for the drive and looking forward to the next one.
