BU TAIS Saturday 22 night drive

BU TAIS Saturday 22 night drive

A beautiful night drive in perspective in the region of BU TAIS. After a day of driving, it was necessary to remain concentrated with the accumulated tiredness. Everyone arrived on time except two drivers who did not show up or apologize. In the end the team was composed of:

John (leader) Jeep JK
Razvan ** Jeep
Shameem ** Fortuner
Adam ** Prado
And Marshal Michael and Thomas as supervisors.

After a night driving briefing, we went to have fun near the BU TAIS gate. The area was technical and far from the high dunes. The start was difficult, bad choice of track and fatigue. In the end, I was stuck twice in 15 minutes.
It would have been easier if I had been in a 4x4. :D

After this episode everything went very well, the track was technical and fast. All the drivers drove very well. We had a good time until 8:30 pm before leaving the drivers on the gatch road to find our bivouac area.

Thanks to all for coming and to Razvan for his good second lead and Adam for his Sweep. Shameem drove very well too.
Thanks Michael and Thomas, the dream team was there for an intense weekend.

See you on the sand.

Although John several times demonstrated how to get stuck in the soft sand no one else could do it. Maybe because we others had 4x4 engaged. All 3 internediate drivers did really well.
It was a good track and we had a lot of fun watching the recoveries.
Thanks Jean for organising and leading us safely after this really long day.
