DOC Returns Night drive Trip report
Posted: Tue Jul 24, 2007 8:48 am
A good night was had by all,
started at 7pm by all meeting at ADNOC,left Adnoc around 7.15, straight to Mussafah play ground, deflated had a quick marshal briefing then into the dark, nice easy start gradually steeping up the pace, first to get stuck was Halwa inside a very difficult & tight bowl, Kalemero took an alternative path and also got stuck, from there on it became vikramd night with several stucks (sorry lost count, I think 3) the drive was fast paced with a good variety of off road experience, last to get stuck was myself (sorry Mac!) I’m still getting used to having to change gear myself, from there to the finish was a frantic paced last 1km through easy dunes back to the deflation point.
The weather was warm but very sticky from humidity, every one left with a big smile and safe with no damage.
All in all a great night with great people.
Thanks
