We all met in time North of the Tilal Sweihan roundabout. After deflation, safety and trip briefing we made our way further North through some farms into some smaller dunes. Warming up we changed the direction to West and after a while came into an area with some higher dunes. Reji was part-leading with me as his second lead for about one hour. The next bit was a nice roller-coaster through some medium high open dunes before we challenged the convoy in a tight technical area. Passing a couple of farms and a lot of rubbish we finished the trip at sunset after 60 km in the desert.
We had no stucks and only a few second tries.

Overall a nice and diverse mix of terrain, ideal for Newbie, intermediate and even low advance trips. Everyone did very well, especially Toni as it was his first intermediate trip.

Thanks Reji for part leading, Surya for reliable second leading and Drew for a solid sweep.
Thanks to John and Michael who provided invaluable support and advice.

Thanks all for joining and see you soon again in the sand.

Thanks Thomas for organizing this trip, nice way to start the weekend! We got to see some nice rock formations as well.And thanks to John and Michael for their guidance.

Thanks Thomas and Reji for a pleasant drive through a lesser used area of Tilal Sweihan. It was an enjoyable start to a weekend in the sands.

Thank you Thomas for organizing this trip in an area I did not know. It is perfect for newbie, intermediate and advance 101 trips. All the drivers did very well and it also allowed Regi to practice leading.
It's always a pleasure to ride together, see you next time.

Many thanks Marshall Thomas for giving me a chance for part lead with my great off road teachers. It was nice evening. Everybody did well.
See you soon
