Dubai Int Trip Fri 20th Report

Post by Sean »

All bar 1 meet on time, after the last arrived enroute we headed to deflation point...2 had pulled out due to ramadan, thanks for advising me early and 1 no show :evil: but got eventual apology later in the day ;)

After getting ready and briefing we got underway, Adrian was second lead, nice work all day thanks...Dr Sotto was sweeping, again thanks and well done.

Between Adrian and Dr Sotto we had Voy; good driving and improving well keep it up, Kikitour you soon ;) Millhouse, nice driving also hope Mark enjoyed his ride too, Snappy good driving and great cupcakes Sarah as always a nice treat....then Hangtin in the sole hummer for the day :(

Thanks Cherif and Jayne for support in various vehicles and to Jayne for letting me lead in the Jeep, nice knowing you were both there...Malte nice to see you again, nice passengering ;)

We had a few tyre issues with flats and punctures and a couple of minor stucks and a pop out, nothing major, so a nice easy trip from Al Faqaa through to the truck road over all.

Look forward to seeing you all again soon..

Thanks Sean for a great trip. It was excellent as usual.

Thanks also for letting Mark have a ride at the front. He really enjoyed the day and it seems to have confirmed his thoughts on getting a car.

Cherif - thanks for being passenger with me and the good company.


Cheers, Scott

Hey guys if any of you have any slow leaking tyres after the trip go and get them checked, if they have not gone down since the trip but were some of the problem ones on the day, may also be worth checking. The jeep had a very slow leaking tyre, had it checked and a nail through it, Adrian and Dr Soto also found nails in there tyres :(

Hi Jayne - as you know I had a screw in one of my tires. I waited until I got home and then slowly took it out. Unfortunately, 2 inches later, I was still taking it out !!! Not sure where I found this screw but it left a large hole. Been to the garage, everything now sorted, mended and spare wheel back as spare wheel ...... ready for next trip ..... have a good holiday and see you / Sean when you get back.

Thanks sean & Jayne for the nice trip. Was great seeing you all again. The pity of passengering still holds on :/ .
Hope anytime soon it comes to an end.

Thanks Dr. Soto & Adrian for giving me a ride :)

Thanks Jayne - My tyre has held up without problem but I'm going to check it. In any event, new valves are in order I think.
