Great Drivers Kharadly**, Bobocmaster**Luc**Jean phi** Mr George*
We all (mostly) met on time in sweihan. Unfortunately dsalas had issue with car and advised before trip of not being able to make it. safety first and wise choice, thank you for advice. however there was 1 no show, call or SMS - sorry but not next time please at least let me know.
We all headed to gate 13 where we deflated, briefed and got ready.
with 1 newbie and some intermediates we put together a sweeping trip introducing some climbs, slip faces and a rollercoaster style trip.
everyone did very well with but we always ask to keep on the track. we got to some of the higher dunes and everyone did very well. no stucks or second tries.
we took several breaks during the trip. unfortunatly we had a mechanical issue and Tilki's car decided to leak from the radiator. everyone played their part in helping resolve the issue and thank you - great teamwork. We took chance to have break and chat under trees and met some friends from another group. 52North and RogueOne followed me to scout a track, then we helped tow the prado to gatch.
Thank you once again for the great teamwork that is needed in these situations. these things happen. All was sorted and car delivered for repairs by mid afternoon.
thank you for a lovely morning in the dunes.

Focus on the future, that's where your life is going. Focus on the past and you will go nowhere.

Thank you for organizing the trip and for a great lead, which was unfortunately cut short due to the mechanical problem.
Truly appreciate the team work mentality of our members.
Hope Tilki's car is fixed soon, see you all soon in the sand.
