    Dear Marshals,

    Dubai Offroaders has not ceased to surprise and inspire us since we arrived in Dubai. It has given us a lot of memories for life, not to mention the skills that we have learned participating in the life of the club. It has undoubtedly played an important part in making us feel at home here.

    I don’t think Sebastien imagined 18 months back that he might become a DO Marshal, so this promotion really comes as icing on the cake, for him of course, but also for me as I unexpectedly become β€œthe boss of a Marshal” B-) B-) B-)

    I wish further success to the club and look forward to many more adventures with DO (always with a box of chocolate cake, needless to say).

    Hi @matthewficco and @Ajay, thanks again for organising and leading this beautiful trip to Oman. We look forward to joining you in the next ones πŸ™‚

    I hope Mila is recovering quickly from her hornet stings.

    Thanks to everyone for the company. It’s always a pleasure to meet new people and spend time together in such wonderful settings.

    Hi everyone!

    I have caught myself thinking with a smile about the lady drive we had a couple of weeks ago and I want to thank the marshals again for organising it. Special thanks to @John.Xterra and @Asim for respectively leading and sweeping making it both safe and fun. Thank you to my husband @Sebastien for being my patient co-pilot and instructor πŸ™‚
    Last but not least, many thanks to @Bernardo for the video immortalizing this event.

    I have to say, after being a co-pilot myself for almost a year now and witnessing dozens of drives, this was a nice-paced and disciplined drive, no less enjoyable than other newbee/fewbee drives organised by the club. So the ladies shouldn’t hesitate to join “regular” DO drives (should they be hesitating at all).

    There was a lot of enthusiasm when we finished. I hope this will encourage the marshals to organise more lady drives in the future. I am sure most participants of the first one, if not all, are already in the starting blocks to sign up and word of mouth will do its work inviting more ladies to try a desert :drive: .

    Best,

    Gwen

    Hi John! Great plan. I had heard that this :drive: was coming up and I was very eager to join. However April 21 is the only Friday that is difficult for me in the weeks to come. Nonetheless, I have registered hoping I will make it.

    Dear Offroaders,

    thank you very much for the great newbie drive yesterday. Special thanks to the seniors, @Saif, @Sash716, @Asim, and last but not least @Sebastien. It was a very fun learning experience, where I am sure that all the newbies felt safe and in good hands, as I did. Thank you for your patience and support which are very motivating to become a better driver and a better person.

    See you at the next :drive: as a co-pilot (or as a pilot if I manage to negotiate that ;;) ;;) ;;) )
