    :ymparty: Again we had enough marshals and participants for 2 convoys.

    I led the fewbie++ with Mathew Ficco in support. We started in the Badayer and had a fast paced convoy that crossed the many big dunes and bowls in the direction of Sony Ericsson. Before we reached Sony Ericsson we cut across some tight technical dunes to follow the track that leads to Faqa. It was a nice, fun and fast paced drive that allowed everyone to reach new heights. Thanks to Matthew for sweeping.
