Intermediate Convoy - Misso Bisho Farewell Event

It was a privilege to lead an Intermediate convoy in one of the biggest events organized by our club in recent times.
I think it was a befitting farewell to two of the stalwarts of the club. I was away from dunes for almost a month due to the harsh weather and that unfortunate tyre blast accident. However it was impossible for me to skip this event; which was organized in honour of a family who were so supportive and encouraging in my journey at this lovely club.

Our convoy got together at 4:30. Details of the convey:


Jithesh - Lead
Chrismon - 2nd Lead
Sunet
Reji
Dileep
Vishnu
Thomas (Expert) -Sweeper
Supporting Marshals: Mark & Anthony

After the briefing, the drive was started by 4.40 pm. Since the area near to gate 12 was crowder than SZ Road, we moved to some less busy areas.

The intermediate members of the convoy got ample opportunities to learn & horn the skills of slide sloping on some of the larger dunes of the area.

Though it was his first intermediate drive, Dileep did extremely well. Other drivers also did really well. There was only one recovery during the entire trip.

The trip concluded at the barbecue point at 7.20 pm.

It was really a pleasure to receive positive feedbacks from both Marshals and convoy members at the end of the trip.

Big thanks & salutes to the support team: Anthony, Mark and Thomas.

Looking forward to seeing you guys.

Great lead and trip JITHU. All driver very well and handled their vehicles with great control. The Bisho's will be greatly missed and I wish them the best in their future endeavour.

It was a super duper drive Jithu!Really awesome trip. We covered  43 km without wasting a single minute. The lead and marshal gives freedom to practice bigger tunes many times. Thanks Marshal Mark, Tony and Thomas for your support. 
Finally !  leaving our  two great  Marshals is still not acceptable to me. What to do?. I believe that  they will come back soon.   All the best Bisho and Misso.

Thanks Jithesh for this well lead trip - you are a real dune climber.... And as you said, plenty of opportunity for our intermediates to practice side sloping on high dunes. And it was great to watch all of them doing really well. Was a pleasure following your track and have the company of the other drivers.
Also good to see Christoph again as a Jimney passenger and part-time driver ;-)
