We all met at the meeting point on time, it was 40 degrees . After deflation, flags up, safety briefing and convoy set up, with the first beam of light we started moving, both Intermediate & Newbie convoys, drove together on the gatch road as one convoy (20+ cars), heading towards the water tank hill. One by one all the drivers climbed up the hill where Newbies climbed first followed by the Intermediates. We stayed up to enjoy the sunrise along with some manakish and coffee. Both Teams gathered for breakfast, chit-chat and taking some photos, then each convoy started of it's journey.
With Mira-M as my Second Lead and FidoDido as the Official Sweeper, we started cruising between Al Khatim dunes. We had couple of second tries and stucks, all were recovered safely by Mira-M, Kharadly, F16 and FidoDido. We finished the trip at Al Faya (almost 40 km off road driving).
All drivers did very good, thank you guys for the lovely morning.
Mira-M excellent second lead, thank you for changing the track when required and your clear communication.
FidoDido amazing support, thanks Bro for looking after the convoy and all the efforts exerted during the trip.
