Hello everyone,
It was great being back in the sand again after spending a few weeks in my home country for New Year.
Nice to have met all the new faces who joined our family on the CM drive the weekend before, and showing their interest by joining their first Newbie drive. Welcome to each and every new member, and we will certainly spend a lot more time together in the future. It is a wonderful journey of making new friends, learning about the desert and having fun driving.
Our convoy consisted mostly of new members who just got their newbie stars, therefore it was time to introduce safe climbing of dunes and cresting at a safe speed, without flying. The area provided enough technical dunes for everyone to practise this skill.
Due to a change in final destination because a ranger asked us to leave the area (this was a first, as we have driven there many many times before) we also got to experience some flat terrain where we drove fast rally style. It was a nice flat road, and we could push the cars to the max and enjoy high speed desert driving in a safe manner.
Thank you for everyone who joined the vent, and for all the support from intermediates and advance.
Keep driving, keep having fun, and see you soon in the sand.
Regards,
Booy
