Rubber and Sand

[Abu Jimmy]

Yet , another joyful day with Almost4x4 members , we all met at Emarat petrol station , where i got the chance to meet our new club members in person and add faces to the names i read in the trip list . The morning breeze was a chill and the mood for off roading was high . moved to deflating point , had a detailed briefing for our first timers , build the convoy and into the desert we marched .

We had a very interesting track , which was rich in terrain( lovely climbs and drops ) and with a fascinating sight seeing ( grass land escapes , trees and dunes ). all the credit goes to Youghy for such a wonderful lead . all the drivers did a marvelous job especially the new comers ( very few stucks and no pop outs ) who had the chance to watch our founder " Bu Rashid " recovering a solo vehicle ( not from our convoy ) which was in a very bad position facing a big rock in descent ( this guy went to the desert alone and was caught by surprise with no one around to help . it was a good lesson to our members , " never go to desert alone " , always go in a convoy ( at least two more vehicles to be with you ). after this informative break , we continued our way to end point where we inflated and hit the road back home after a well spent morning in fine weather and great company .

Special thanks to Bu Rashid , Youghy and Melfi for their help and support .

Great salute for all participants for making this trip such fun and joy .

It was my First one, I could not sleep night before as I couldn't wait to hit the sand, In the morning when I reached the petrol station it was amazing to see so many almosters with their 4x4 I introduced my self and quickly got to deflate. and then It actually happened.

I was with my cousins and his family and all the time we kept appraising how well it was organized and Hats off to Abu Jimmy, Yoghybear bu Rashid and Melfi for making it memorable for us.

It was amazing and the track was just perfect for new members full of fun and full or excitement.

If I were to describe it in one word i would say it was Impressive

Count me in on all the upcoming events*

It was a fun and perhaps the fastest Club Members drive I've been to (which is a good sign!) although without many stucks, we did not have many chit chat moments. :015: Despite that, I think (and hope) that I got to say Hi to all our new members.

The rescue lesson of the independent driver did bring 3 reminders to all:
* Do not drive alone, always in a convoy of at least 3 cars (as mentioned by Abu Jimmy)
* Have a flag so that you can be seen
* Stop at top of dune so you can make a better decision on which direction to go down

Thank you Abu Jimmy, Yoghybear and Abu Rashed for a cool morning! :like:

PS: Hurry to get your tickets for our anniversary party this Friday!

It was my first drive with the club. I liked the discipline and the effort to keep everyone safe. The pace was a bit slow for me but I guess this is my green fees to progress with ALMOST 4x4.
I did get the opportunity to test a few new bits on my car. Looking forward to many more. Thanks to Abu Jimmy and Yoghi Bear and to everyone else for making it an enjoyable morning
