All met on time at the Adnoc station in Sweihan and we headed towards the deflation point. After deflation and briefing we hit the sand around 2pm. As two members declined we were only four cars which proofed to be very positive for the progress . No stucks and only few breaks, so we spent most of the time driving and challenging our skills.
As usually we started in the higher dunes, found some spots to play, varied the pace and enjoyed the scenery.
From Al Khazna towards Al Khatim we changed the style and had lots of fun with side crests, side crest overs and driving on the crest of the dunes .
Over all we saw plenty of Gazelles most of them in groups of three or four, which I always find pretty amazing.
At the usual bbq spot we met Eric's group and enjoyed the sunset in good company. Thanks to Tariq and Thabit for the excellent bbq.
Thanks everybody for joining me on that trip. You all did very well.
Hope to see you soon again.
