Sundowner IV: Big Red - Pink Rock (24.08.07) Trip Report

Post by Jo »

I am sooooo relaxed :wink:

.. It was a good one. We met at 16:00h sharp (those wou could not make it missed a great one..), deflated and me, Tutan, Tweety, G-Man, Uristier, Wildfire, Cybershot hit the sand a 16:30h.

The gentle drive got us in 1.5h to the Pink Rock crossing some nice spots increasing slowly the dificulty. Finaly the gang made it up to the Pink-Rock Saddle (or call it pass). Congrate Ladies!!!!

The return went the same smooth and thanks to Cybershots sweep, G-Mans recoveries and Wildfires driving tips we had some fun at the slope of the big red trying to master it :lol: :lol:

So hope you all had fun like I had and looking forward meeting all of you next week..

:hat:

Ho ho, after the morning drive I was full of sand and now the LC is full.

I've almost as much sand in the car as I enjoyed the Big Red and the Pink Rock. Thank you Jo for the great lead to the small dunes.

Jo, stay in Dubai longer so we can enjoy your well organized trips to that amazing and wonderful scenery.

Then the crazy drivers from LAMA Tours decided to zigzag right through our convoy at speed.

Thanks to all who attended.

Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.
