First time to driveWelcome to Dubai Offroaders Ru-mey.
Hi all,
I’m very excited to join you on Friday for the 1st time.
I have a question though. One of the required accessories is ‘off road GPS’. I have a rubicon jeep wrangler 2014 with built-in navigation. Do I need to buy a new one or this should be enough?
Thanks in advance.
Best,
Renos
You won’t need a GPS yet… It’s a nice to have but not a necessity when starting off.
Welcome to DO

3. cool box – don’t have
4. air mattress – we have

RenosTomorrows drive is not an overnighter. It’s going to be a regular afternoon drive (a really big and nice one) followed by dinner at one of the safari camps for those interested.
Next weeks drive, the Liwa lollipop 2000 is going to be an overnight drive in which all participants will be setting up a camp and spending the night camping in the desert.
As far as equipment goes, I would say the following are must haves:
Tent
Sleeping bag
Firewood (2 bundles per car)
Food/refreshmentsThe rest: chairs, cool box to keep refreshments cold are nice to have but not absolutely needed.
As far as BBQ grill, typically we have enough members bring theirs (me included) and you are more than welcome to use it.

Thanks for the quick response! How can we contribute to the dinner if we wanted to follow?
Its 50AED per person. As long as you’ve registered for the trip using the link on 1st page, then simply saying on this chat that you’re in for dinner afterwards is enough… You can give the 50ead to one of the marshalls tomorrow
Dear DO team,
As a shift worker, I rarely get the chance to go for the desert drive. I have been waiting for this day as this one was special for the so called newbies. But something urgent and unavoidable has come through and I have to pull out of this trip. with the great line up you have Inshah Allah it is going to be great day. I am going to miss that. Hoping to join you soon for a day of fun.
Regards,
Abdrahman.
