Beat the Heat Friday

Post by MustafaHabash »

We started from Gate 12 at around 4:30pm with the convoy order being: Myself (Lead), Ahmad (2nd Lead), Subash, shaanib, Florian, John, and Ousama (Sweeper).

Chief Micheal asked if he can join me as a passenger rather than driving and it was an honour. Learned a lot from his coaching and choice of dunes and maneuvers.

We had so many beautiful dunes on our way to Nagra, on which many of them we had 2nd tries, and we even had few stucks. I was very determined to reach Nagra though, and we did, yet ended my trip an hour later than it was supposed to be. We then took an east gatch/newbie track from Nagra to Gate 12 where we had a small debrief, inflated, and headed home.

The drivers controlled their vehicles perfectly. Very impressed by Subash's skills and driving, yesterday being his 3rd advance.

Ousama and Ahmad, cant thank you enough for the support.

Chief Micheal, many thanks for having this trip happen.

See you all next time.

Mustafa

The track was smooth and well-paced, with great enjoyment and the appropriate fun for all the drivers. The trip took longer than planned cause we enjoyed it and wanted to continue.


* Thank Marshal Micheal for supporting the trip; it is always an honor to learn from you! πŸ˜„
* Thank you, Mustafa, for the great lead! I hope to join your Dubai trips soon. 😎
* A great second lead, Ahmed, and an excellent show at Nagra! I hope your car is ok, and I hope to see you soon! πŸ‘
* Enjoy your vacation, John! Let us see you lead a trip once you get back! 😁

Thanks Mustafa for an enjoyable afternoon, it was great riding shotgun with you. You led the group on a determined track across the 'battle scarred' sands of Sweihan all the way to Nagrah.

Good fun, with a nice bunch of people, let's do it again
