Hello Guys
@siddharthsai and I met at our usual coffee spot at 7:30 AM, along with @OmarShams and @hidayathshaik . After a quick coffee, we headed to the meeting point and arrived by 8:00 AM. We deflated our tires, fixed our flags, and started greeting everyone. The heavy fog caused a slight delay.
Ehab and Samshi gathered everyone, explained how the drive would go, and announced the convoy order. Shortly after, we were off.The drive began with fast, technical sections and gradually moved into dune climbs, switching, side cresting, and bashing. There were multiple refusals, secondary tries, and pop-outs, which made the tricky sections even more exciting. Every section felt challenging, thrilling, and thoroughly enjoyable. I was positioned between @ahmed77moharem and @Vika , which felt reassuring being between two experienced intermediates during the trickier parts. Shamshi floated throughout the drive, keeping an eye on everyone and offering guidance whenever needed.
It’s great to see how every drive brings something new to learn:
Kick Up the Dust I: Focused on climbing big dunes from different angles and controlling the car.
Kick Up the Dust II: A faster, technical drive with side crests, focusing on balancing the car.
Kick Up the Dust III: A mix of both high speed dune dashing and highly technical terrain .
Ehab planned everything perfectly. The layout and progression made the learning curve smooth while keeping the thrill high.
A big thanks to @Ehab for organising the drive, @alshamsi_m for guiding us throughout, and all the intermediate drivers for supporting and sharing their experience.
I have no idea what Kick Up the Dust IV will bring, but I’m already excited and can’t wait for the next drive!
