    Thank you Zacharia for organizing and leading today’s drive.

    We were 7 cars in total and had a nice smooth drive.

    There were 4 recoveries in total, but I think everyone drive really well.

    Looking forwards to seeing you all in the sand again soon.

    Thanks !!

    Thank you Marshal Zak, it is my pleasure to be 2nd Lead with you..

    As always, Wonderful drive Leads by Marshal Zak and Ashraf as a sweep. new place in al Faqaa full of technical soft and tricky dunes, we had few stuck on top of the dunes which is not easy to recover, but of course if you have Ashraf and Zak no worries at all. Ahmed mounir was doing good during the drive, Khaled and Bo mohamed also was doing good.
    thank you so much for that drive and looking forward to drive with you again and again..
    Bahaa :drive: :drive: :thanks:
