A nice weekend in perspective, a parallel trip with an advance convoy and camping at the end.

The intermediate team was composed of :

Myself "John" Leader
Michael A **FJ (second lead)
Dmitry *** F150
Tim **** jeep
Shajumon **** FJ
And Marshal Thomas

After a quick briefing for experienced drivers, we headed out to the yellow truck for some fun. The start was smooth and we drove in parallel to the advance trip. The aim was not to cross a single ridge.

Half way through the trip Tim took the lead and made a great run, we arrived at the yellow truck easily and waited for the advance who must have had a great time on the beautiful dunes.

At the end of the day Thomas took the lead to the bivouac point near the track where those who did not want to camp left.
As Michael says in his report, the campsite was perfect, thanks to all and especially Alaa for his excellent knaffa.

The next morning we made a intermediate trip all together, we arrived at the meeting point on time and with a few small breaks.

Thanks to all of you for coming, Michael drove very well in spite of his contact in a hole; Shaju made a very good sweep and Tim an excellent Lead. I am not forgetting Dmitry and Thomas.

I hope you all had fun and wish you a great week and see you on the sand.

Jean,

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to lead. It was a little challenging due to the no cresting rule but was lots of fun. Thanks to shaju and Thomas for their excellent support.

The camping was wonderful and a special thanks to Alaa for the wonderful Knaffa.

Hope to see everyone in the sand again soon.

Tim
