Hello everyone
They say it's better to see once than hear a hundred times...
Being in the club for many years, I only had a chance to hear the legends about this drive, from which goosebumps instantly went through my body, and now I finally experienced everything on my own. To be honest, I have never had such a drive. It was incredibly from the very beginning to the end. I read previous reports, heard thousands of stories, but nothing compares to my personal experience
As always in our club, everything was organized perfectly. Atmosphere, upcoming intrigue, truck, team spirit, area, despite the fact that it was one of the hottest days of the summer, plus a well-prepared frying pan to fry all of us
My palms were sweaty along the way to the meetingpoint. The meeting place is Sweihan, which has never happened before, if I'm not mistaken, the time is 16.00. Arriving at the place, in full readiness, which means having bought a lot of water, as we have heard that we will dig a lot today. After a short briefing from @alshamsi_m, who showed a small section for a drive, said, nothing special, let me know it would be really hot today. Before the formation of the convoy, @David came up to me and said, Vika, it will be very fast, please be careful, the probability of a pop-out will be on every square centimeter. Well, ahh, I love my new tyres, it was obvious, luckily for me, not a single popout. So, the convoy is ready. Full throttle!!! Speed, technical area, very soft sand, but no way back. In the truest sense of the word, I was driving a Kangaroo style until I noticed flying objects in the rearview mirror. Repeated attempts to fix it all were unsuccessful, until I saw a flying metal jack. I didn’t really want to die from being hit by a jack
@alshamsi_m and @Phoenix came to the help and we flew on. I clearly tried to keep my position in the convoy, sometimes at some point I realized that it became a complete chaos. Where I am? Where is the car I was supposed to follow? Where is the whole convoy? And why are there only intermediates around me? Am I the same 30% that can be left in the desert? And in addition, Vika, you're stuck))))
@Rashid and @Scorpio rescued me and said catch up! Trying to make up the distance, I flew at full speed, and of course, this could not be noticed by @alshamsi_m, who immediately transmitted the message: Take it easy, girl, take it easy! Which one is easier? Hair back and full forward As a result, several second attempts, two self-recoveries, one stuck, but I survived. GOD! THIS WAS AWESOME!!!
Thank you so much for such an adrenaline rush and experience. Thank you for unforgettable memories and emotions
Cannot wait until the next time.
Yours Vika
