Chasing the Ryno
A gorgeous start to the morning - a 35*C start to the morning. Overcast skies, breeze...and excited drivers.
The sand was hard due to some rainfall so we were advised to keep our tyres at a slightly higher PSI. The summer did a great job of drinking up the moisture in the sand as it got slippery really quickly so I deflated my tyres a little more. Traction returned and the fun continued.
This area held up to its reputation of being a Jinx. Didn't take long before we had our first victim whose car went into limp mode. After some investigation, we found a sand filled filter which was promptly cleaned and we were ready to go.
Shortly after, the area claimed it's second victim by breaking a CV joint so we had to bid our loving and watchful angel farewell.
We weren't worried though as we still had many other watchful eyes on us to keep us safe so the show went on.
@Rashid expertly led us through amazing lines up huge dunes, with sharp ridges which he and @Rapello in second lead, swiftly broke for us so we could follow. High speed seesaw climbs and drops were the order of the morning. We completed one chain and straight crested on to the next where we found even more beautiful high dunes.
There was not a ridge or dune left unconquered. @Rashidjass found them all and suddenly it was over
@Rashidjass had created such an exhilarating drive that over 3 hours later we were so full of energy, we were ready to drive all the way back to the starting point
Thank you to the lead, the second lead, the sweeper and the floaters @Singh, @Scorpio, @AlShamzi_m, @Mahmoodyasin, @Nabil, and @Giorgio by taking us on such a fantastic morning drive and keeping us safe.
Thank you to my fellow Inters @MPodroid, @Defragmantor, and @Jasper, for the great company
Until we meet again @Dauntless
