After a long hard working week, we started our weekend with a small afternoon drive and I had fun and started my week correctly.
Here we started
We all met in al khatim petrol station, Amjad was the first one to reach, then me and all the others approximately at the same time at 2:30.
At 2:45 we all moved to deflation point Amjad, Marco, Ashraf, Alkhateeb, Wissam and Zouzou. Unlikely Zayed couldn't join us, but our great marshal Karyouti joined us at the deflation, here our joy was completed to start our fun .

The first 4 kilometers were smooth with no stucks or any obstacles as the track was not easy.
The scene was safe to push a little after prayer and i can say that we all drove.
We cheated once and made a small side crest uphill and it was a piece of cake to the guys, what made me sure that they have done it before. So i am not the first cheater .

Before the end point in 5.1 kilometers, the wind started and the weather got colder. Visibility was bad and we had two silly stucks as the sand was very soft in that area. We recovered quickly and moved on to the end point.

I enjoyed driving with u guys and it was fun. Big thanks to all of u , specially Zouzou ,Wissam and Karyouti for your assistance

Thanks a lot Charo for this amazing trip, the track was great.. I started to love Alkhatim area more & more

It is a true joy to watch you drive man, thanks for all the great stuff

Zouzou, Qaruoty, Wissam.. Thanks for the great company, assistance, & guidance.

it is always great to meet you Ashraf, & thanks for the lovely tea.. man you need to bring more with you to cope with the huge demand

Marco it was great to meet you, looking forward to see you in the coming trips

Every trip I feel I'm learning a lot, getting more & more confident in the sand, & feeling my car better..

Still, with each trip I'm feeling that there are soooooo much more to learn, so thanks for all your efforts guys to help the new offroaders like myself

I'll be off the sand temporarily to fix the overheating thing, and watching for this gang's coming trips once my ride is ready!

Thanks Charo & Abu Ghazi, it was directly on the front bumper

.. I think the sand & the sun in the far end of the sky made it a nice video indeed
